Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of all previous societies has been the history of class struggles.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    It may be well to remember that the highest level of moral aspiration recorded in history was reached by a few ancient Jews—Micah, Isaiah, and the rest—who took no count whatever of what might not happen to them after death. It is not obvious to me why the same point should not by and by be reached by the Gentiles.
    Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    Social history might be defined negatively as the history of a people with the politics left out.
    —G.M. (George Macaulay)
