Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “You that would judge me do not judge alone
    This book or that, come to this hallowed place
    Where my friends’ portraits hang and look thereon;
    Ireland’s history in their lineaments trace;
    Think where man’s glory most begins and ends
    And say my glory was I had such friends.”
    —William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    “Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.”
    —Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

    “The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker.”
