Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.”
    —E.L. (Edgar Lawrence)

    “If usually the “present age” is no very long time, still, at our pleasure, or in the service of some such unity of meaning as the history of civilization, or the study of geology, may suggest, we may conceive the present as extending over many centuries, or over a hundred thousand years.”
    —Josiah Royce (1855–1916)

    “These anyway might think it was important
    That human history should not be shortened.”
    —Robert Frost (1874–1963)
