Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “Revolutions are the periods of history when individuals count most.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “So in accepting the leading of the sentiments, it is not what we believe concerning the immortality of the soul, or the like, but the universal impulse to believe, that is the material circumstance, and is the principal fact in this history of the globe.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
