About This Quote

This saying implies that history is written by those who are victorious. History is not necessarily written by the victor, but it should be written by the victor. It isn’t necessarily bad to write history based on what has happened; it’s even good to write history based on what should happen. But, if someone writes history based on what has happened, they are writing history about themselves and winning the game of life.
