Barbara W. Tuchman Quote
General Gallieni, dining in civilian clothes at a small café in Paris on August 9, overheard an editor of Le Temps at the next table say to a companion, I can tell you that General Gallieni has just entered Colmar with 30,000 men. Leaning over to his friend, Gallieni said quietly, That is how history is written.
