Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “I saw the Arab map.
    It resembled a mare shuffling on,
    dragging its history like saddlebags,
    nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”
    —Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)

    “No event in American history is more misunderstood than the Vietnam War. It was misreported then, and it is misremembered now.”
    —Richard M. Nixon (b. 1913)
