Famous quotes containing the word history:

    —Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)

    “The history of medicine is the history of the unusual.”
    —Robert M. Fresco, and Jack Arnold. Prof. Gerald Deemer (Leo G. Carroll)

    “Those who weep for the happy periods which they encounter in history acknowledge what they want; not the alleviation but the silencing of misery.”
