Famous quotes containing the words history of, history and/or term:

    The history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman.
    Willa Cather (1876–1947)

    It is true that this man was nothing but an elemental force in motion, directed and rendered more effective by extreme cunning and by a relentless tactical clairvoyance .... Hitler was history in its purest form.
    Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    We now demand the light artillery of the intellect; we need the curt, the condensed, the pointed, the readily diffused—in place of the verbose, the detailed, the voluminous, the inaccessible.

    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1845)
