Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    “It’s not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “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)
