If you want to write some Histories, you must also lie and invent tales.

The quote of the day is

"If you want to become a man of letters and perhaps write some Histories one day , you must also lie and invent tales, otherwise your History would become monotonous."(p.59)

It is important for us to learn our Japanese history. As we understand our history, we can think and decide how to do as Japanese and how Japan will be.

You must also understand it is difficult to know our real histories, when you read history books. The governor wrote histories as they wanted in Japan and other countries similarly.
