Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The history of men’s opposition to women’s emancipation is more interesting perhaps than the story of that emancipation itself.”
    —Virginia Woolf (1882–1941)

    “I believe my ardour for invention springs from his loins. I can’t say that the brassiere will ever take as great a place in history as the steamboat, but I did invent it.”
    —Caresse Crosby (1892–1970)

    “Jesus Christ belonged to the true race of the prophets. He saw with an open eye the mystery of the soul. Drawn by its severe harmony, ravished with its beauty, he lived in it, and had his being there. Alone in all history he estimated the greatness of man.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
