Summary

This quote suggests that true love involves a level of understanding and consideration for one's partner. If the speaker's loved one asked them to stop drinking martinis for their well-being, and the speaker disobeyed and suffered the consequences the next day, the loved one would not point out that they had been warned. Instead, it implies that the loved one would sympathetically stay by their side without saying "I told you so," highlighting the importance of compassion and support in a genuine relationship.

The historian should be fearless and incorruptible; a man of independence, loving frankness and truth; one who, as the poet says, calls a fig a fig and a spade a spade. He should yield to neither hatred nor affection, but should be unsparing and unpitying. He should be neither shy nor deprecating, but an impartial judge, giving each side all it deserves but no more. He should know in his writings no country and no city; he should bow to no authority and acknowledge no king. He should never consider what this or that man will think, but should state the facts as they really occurred.
