Let me end with two great statements about what happens if you do not have an interest in history. One, ancient, is from Cicero: “To be ignorant of what occured before you were born is to remain always a child.” The other, modern, is from the fine American essayist Agnes Repplier: “I used to think that ignorance of history meant only a lack of cultivation and a loss of pleasure. Now I am sure that such ignorance impairs our judgement by impairing our understanding, by depriving us of standards or the power of contrast, and the right to estimate.” And, “We can know nothing of any nation unless we know its history.” _ John Lucas(2000). A Student’s Guide to the Study of History. ISI Books. p.52

2. 극적 기복이 뮤지컬의 미덕일까. 진정성 없는 경박함, 조울증 환자 같았다.
