“Imperiul hun a fost, mai intai de toate, unul parazitar; succesul sau a constat in abilitatea de a imita cultura celor cuceriti, de a se folosi de bunurile lor si de a consuma hrana produsa de acestia.”
Christopher Kelly, The End of Empire: Attila the Hun and the Fall of Rome

“It is always perilous to suppose that the past is over and done with or that it can ever safely be disconnected from the pressing concerns of the present.”
Christopher Kelly

“History is a casualty of empire.”
Christopher Kelly, The Roman Empire: A Very Short Introduction
