Organizing/history

Famous quotes containing the words organizing and/or history:

    Abolitionists were men of sharp angles. Organizing them was like binding crooked sticks in a bundle.
    Jane Grey Swisshelm (1815–1884)

    A poet’s object is not to tell what actually happened but what could or would happen either probably or inevitably.... For this reason poetry is something more scientific and serious than history, because poetry tends to give general truths while history gives particular facts.
    Aristotle (384–323 B.C.)
