Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “In every election in American history both parties have their clichés. The party that has the clichés that ring true wins.”
    —Newt Gingrich (b. 1943)

    “Look through the whole history of countries professing the Romish religion, and you will uniformly find the leaven of this besetting and accursed principle of action—that the end will sanction any means.”
    —Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772–1834)

    “The history of any nation follows an undulatory course. In the trough of the wave we find more or less complete anarchy; but the crest is not more or less complete Utopia, but only, at best, a tolerably humane, partially free and fairly just society that invariably carries within itself the seeds of its own decadence.”
    —Aldous Huxley (1894–1963)
