I would guess it'll be something that's actually more of a commentary on whatever's going on at that point than on the reality of us, because that's what we tend to do. I'll tell you what I'd like to have them say, is to say, in this civilization, I can detect progress, that they have –

Livy, I mean, one of the great Roman historians, at the beginning of his work, A History of Rome, which is this massive thing, he says, the utility and the purpose of history is this – It provides you an infinite variety of experiences and models. noble things to imitate and shameful things to avoid.

We have curiosity. I think curiosity is a great thing that you want to learn something new. I think the human impulse to want to learn new stuff is one of our best characteristics.

We're the accumulation of the knowledge of infinite generations that have come before us. And everything we do is based on that.
