Quote by Emir Kusturica

That is a Medieval way of drawing history, in which they do not respect the law and want the rest of the world to respect the law. That's not possible.

That is a Medieval way of drawing history, in which they do

Summary

This quote suggests that the Medieval approach to understanding history is flawed because it disregards the importance of law and expects others to abide by it. The speaker argues that this viewpoint is unrealistic because it assumes that everyone can be compelled to respect and obey laws. By dubbing it as a "Medieval way," the quote implies that this perspective is outdated and fails to align with the complexities of the modern world. Thus, the speaker suggests the need for a more nuanced understanding of history and the limitations of expecting complete adherence to the law.

In science it often happens that scientists say, 'You know that's a really good argument; my position is mistaken,' and then they would actually change their minds and you never hear that old view from them again. They really do it. It doesn't happen as often as it should, because scientists are human and change is sometimes painful. But it happens every day. I cannot recall the last time something like that happened in politics or religion.
