Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The myth of independence from the mother is abandoned in mid- life as women learn new routes around the mother—both the mother without and the mother within. A mid-life daughter may reengage with a mother or put new controls on care and set limits to love. But whatever she does, her child’s history is never finished.”
    —Terri Apter (20th century)

    “It’s nice to be a part of history but people should get it right. I may not be perfect, but I’m bloody close.”
    —John Lydon (formerly Johnny Rotten)

    “Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.”
    —Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
