Thanks to television, for the first time the young are seeing history made before it is censored by their elders.
Margaret Mead
Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.
Robert Kennedy
A Conservative is a fellow who is standing athwart history yelling 'Stop!'
William F. Buckley, Jr.
It is humiliating to remain with our hands folded while others write history. It matters little who wins. To make a people great it is necessary to send them to battle even if you have to kick them in the pants. That is what I shall do.
Benito Mussolini
Fascism is a religion. The twentieth century will be known in history as the century of Fascism.
Benito Mussolini
The history of saints is mainly the history of insane people.
Benito Mussolini
So I'm OK with myself, with history, my work, who I am and who I was.
Sidney Poitier
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
History passes the final judgment.
Sidney Poitier
If we could read the secret history of our enemies we should find in each man's life sorrow and suffering enough to disarm all hostility.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
That men do not learn very much from the lessons of history is the most important of all the lessons of history.
Aldous Huxley
From their experience or from the recorded experience of others (history), men learn only what their passions and their metaphysical prejudices allow them to learn.
Aldous Huxley
The charm of history and its enigmatic lesson consist in the fact that, from age to age, nothing changes and yet everything is completely different.
Aldous Huxley
Men do not learn much from the lessons of history and that is the most important of all the lessons of history.
Aldous Huxley
De Sade is the one completely consistent and thoroughgoing revolutionary of history.
Aldous Huxley
If history were taught in the form of stories, it would never be forgotten.
Rudyard Kipling
Look, three love affairs in history, are Abelard and Eloise, Romeo and Juliet and the American media and this President at the moment. But this doesn't matter over time. Reality will impinge. If his programs work, he's fine. If it doesn't work, all of the adulation of journalists in the world won't matter.
George Will
History is a vast early warning system.
Norman Cousins
I seldom go into a natural history museum without feeling as if I were attending a funeral.
John Burroughs
Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery, today is God's gift, that's why we call it the present.
Joan Rivers
