History Book

Famous quotes containing the words history and/or book:

    The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    God forbid that any book should be banned. The practice is as indefensible as infanticide.
    Rebecca West (1892–1983)
