Famous quotes containing the word history:

—Karl Marx (18181883)
“... in America ... children are instructed in the virtues of the system they live under, as though history had achieved a happy ending in American civics.”

“I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a will to renewal. This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of crisesMof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no crisis, there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.”
—Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
