Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The history of reform is always identical; it is the comparison of the idea with the fact. Our modes of living are not agreeable to our imagination. We suspect they are unworthy. We arraign our daily employments.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “History, as an entirety, could only exist in the eyes of an observer outside it and outside the world. History only exists, in the final analysis, for God.”
    —Albert Camus (1913–1960)

    “This above all makes history useful and desirable: it unfolds before our eyes a glorious record of exemplary actions.”
    —Titus Livius (Livy)
