Poetry requires a certain kind of disciplined indolence that the world, including many prose writers, doesn’t recognize as discipline. It is, though.

It’s the discipline of preparedness (Requires Quotes)

The study of history requires investigation, imagination, empathy, and respect. Reverence just doesnt enter into it (Requires Quotes)
History is the art of making an argument about the past by telling a story accountable to evidence. In the writing of history, a story without an argument fades into antiquarianism; an argument without a story risks pedantry. Writing history requires empathy, inquiry, and debate. It requires forswearing condescension, cant, and nostalgia. The past isn’t quaint. Much of it, in fact, is bleak (Requires Quotes)
