I will not be remembered in history

People will not speak my name, voices lled with honor and reverence Minds lled with choices of mine, made long ago People shall not build temples, great undertakings of backbreaking work in my memory

I do not wish to be remembered in history

A millennium of discussions of my successes and failures

My aws and insecurities e lies, the truth, in hindsight, are one and the same

History is written by the victors, therefore history, is lled with lies

I do not wish to be the liar

I will not be remembered in history

I will not be discussed at length for failures long past

If I am remembered in history, immortalized forever, It will not be the truth erefore, I will not be remembered in history.
