Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “... that there is no other way,
    That the history of creation proceeds according to
    Stringent laws, and that things
    Do get done in this way, but never the things
    We set out to accomplish and wanted so desperately
    To see come into being.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “There is no example in history of a revolutionary movement involving such gigantic masses being so bloodless.”
    —Leon Trotsky (1879–1940)

    “Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
