Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “Literary works cannot be taken over like factories, or literary forms of expression like industrial methods. Realist writing, of which history offers many widely varying examples, is likewise conditioned by the question of how, when and for what class it is made use of.”
    —Bertolt Brecht (1898–1956)

    “It’s not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
    —Karl Marx (1818–1883)
