We have a collection of 3 History quotes from V S Naipaul
"It's very attractive to people to be a victim. Instead of having to think out the whole situation, about history and your group and what you are doing... if you begin from the point of view of being a victim, you've got it half-made. I mean intellectually." (ID 52735)
"Great writing can be done in biography, history, art." (ID 52816)
"To be converted you have to destroy your past, destroy your history. You have to stamp on it, you have to say 'my ancestral culture does not exist, it doesn't matter.'" (ID 52817)
