Yeah, I read history. But it doesn't make you nice. Hitler read history, too.
Joan Rivers
Every library should try to be complete on something, if it were only the history of pinheads.
Oliver Wendell Holmes
The game of history is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of the majority in the middle.
Eric Hoffer
History is a race between education and catastrophe.
H. G. Wells
Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.
H. G. Wells
Human history in essence is the history of ideas.
H. G. Wells
A library, to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates, should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas - a place where history comes to life.
Norman Cousins
A library is the delivery room for the birth of ideas, a place where history comes to life.
Norman Cousins
No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now.
Richard M. Nixon
Life isn't meant to be easy. It's hard to take being on the top - or on the bottom. I guess I'm something of a fatalist. You have to have a sense of history, I think, to survive some of these things... Life is one crisis after another.
Richard M. Nixon
In the long term we can hope that religion will change the nature of man and reduce conflict. But history is not encouraging in this respect. The bloodiest wars in history have been religious wars.
Richard M. Nixon
I don't think that a leader can control, to any great extent, his destiny. Very seldom can he step in and change the situation if the forces of history are running in another direction.
Richard M. Nixon
The greatest honor history can bestow is that of peacemaker.
Richard M. Nixon
Once you get into this great stream of history, you can't get out.
Richard M. Nixon
History and experience tell us that moral progress comes not in comfortable and complacent times, but out of trial and confusion.
Gerald R. Ford
In known history, nobody has had such capacity for altering the universe than the people of the United States of America. And nobody has gone about it in such an aggressive way.
Alan Watts
Black history is American history.
Morgan Freeman
I think that there are some teachers that do a very good job of incorporating culture and history. And there are some teachers who could use a little more help in that area.
Anne Sullivan
I don't want a Black History Month. Black history is American history.
Morgan Freeman
The megalomaniac differs from the narcissist by the fact that he wishes to be powerful rather than charming, and seeks to be feared rather than loved. To this type belong many lunatics and most of the great men of history.
Bertrand Russell
