—Karl Marx (1818–1883)

“A man will not need to study history to find out what is best for his own culture.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

“... in America ... children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”
—Mary McCarthy (1912–1989)
