Excerpt from A Set of Six
Certain individualities grow into fame through their vices and their virtues, or simply by their actions, which may have a temporary importance; and then they become forgotten. The names of a few leaders alone survive the end of armed strife and are further pre served in history; so that, vanishing from men's active memories, they still exist in books.
