Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “To care for the quarrels of the past, to identify oneself passionately with a cause that became, politically speaking, a losing cause with the birth of the modern world, is to experience a kind of straining against reality, a rebellious nonconformity that, again, is rare in America, where 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)

    “As I am, so shall I associate, and so shall I act; Caesar’s history will paint out Caesar.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “A people without history
    Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
    Of timeless moments.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)
