Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “We may pretend that we’re basically moral people who make mistakes, but the whole of history proves otherwise.”
    —Terry Hands (b. 1941)

    “They are a sort of post-house,where the Fates
    Change horses, making history change its tune,
    Then spur away o’er empires and o’er states,
    Leaving at last not much besides chronology,
    Excepting the post-obits of theology.”
    —George Gordon Noel Byron (1788–1824)

    “It’s nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I’m bloody close.”
    —John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten)
