Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “I believe that history might be, and ought to be, taught in a new fashion so as to make the meaning of it as a process of evolution intelligible to the young.”
    —Thomas Henry Huxley (1825–95)

    “The foregoing generations beheld God and nature face to face; we, through their eyes. Why should not we also enjoy an original relation to the universe? Why should not we have a poetry and philosophy of insight and not of tradition, and a religion by revelation to us, and not the history of theirs?”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman.”
    —Willa Cather (1876–1947)
