Are you familiar with Rodin’s sculpture, The Thinker? I’ve always liked it, and when I decided to name this blog, “History Think,” it seemed obvious that I should make my own collection of Thinkers. Not every famous figure here is known for their intellect, but no one can exist without thinking, so I’m not going to make an arbitrary line and say, “Only those people are good enough to be Thinkers.” The people I have chosen to make imaginary statues of are historical figures worth knowing, and in many cases, worthy of admiring.
