Famous quotes containing the word history:

“There is nothing truer than myth: history, in its attempt to “realize” myth, distorts it, stops halfway; when history claims to have “succeeded” this is nothing but humbug and mystification. Everything we dream is “realizable.” Reality does not have to be: it is simply what it is.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)

“The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker.”
—Richard M. Nixon (1913–1995)

“The history of a soldier’s wound beguiles the pain of it.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
