Famous quotes containing the words base and/or history:

    One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow.
    Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855)

    Social history might be defined negatively as the history of a people with the politics left out.
    —G.M. (George Macaulay)
