Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “A people without history
    Is not redeemed from time, for history is a pattern
    Of timeless moments.”
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    “The history of his present majesty, is a history of unremitting injuries and usurpations ... all of which have in direct object the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these states. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world, for the truth of which we pledge a faith yet unsullied by falsehood.”
    —Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826)
