Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “American time has stretched around the world. It has become the dominant tempo of modern history, especially of the history of Europe.”
    —Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)

    “We are told that men protect us; that they are generous, even chivalric in their protection. Gentlemen, if your protectors were women, and they took all your property and your children, and paid you half as much for your work, though as well or better done than your own, would you think much of the chivalry which permitted you to sit in street-cars and picked up your pocket- handkerchief?”
    —Mary B. Clay, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 3, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    “Every literary critic believes he will outwit history and have the last word.”
    —Mason Cooley (b. 1927)
