Famous quotes containing the word history:
“The custard is setting; meanwhile
I not only have my own history to worry about
But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“It takes a great deal of history to produce a little literature.”
—Henry James (1843–1916)
“The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
