Pretending,' she looked at the garden, 'is not the truth.''But you said two true things, right ? One, you hate this girl. Two, you want her to feel better.

Historians are not scientists. They cannot {and should not even trying to} establish universal laws of social or political "physics" with reliable predictive powers. Why?
