Famous quotes containing the word history:
“Books of natural history aim commonly to be hasty schedules, or inventories of Gods property, by some clerk. They do not in the least teach the divine view of nature, but the popular view, or rather the popular method of studying nature, and make haste to conduct the persevering pupil only into that dilemma where the professors always dwell.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.”
—Norman Mailer (b. 1923)
“There is no history of how bad became better.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
