Famous quotes containing the word history:

    Howard Estabrook (1884–1978)

    Tell me of the height of the mountains of the moon, or of the diameter of space, and I may believe you, but of the secret history of the Almighty, and I shall pronounce thee mad.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    These anyway might think it was important
    That human history should not be shortened.
    Robert Frost (1874–1963)
