What does it mean to be a historian?

You tell nice stories that people want to believe that may or may not align with what the sources that you quote are actually saying.

read, write, research, teach.

Being a historian means dedicating your life to the preservation of history for future generations.

I cherrypick actions, events or quotes from history that prove whatever point I'm trying to make at the moment
