Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of philosophy is to a great extent that of a certain clash of human temperaments.
    William James (1842–1910)

    Yet poetry, though the last and finest result, is a natural fruit. As naturally as the oak bears an acorn, and the vine a gourd, man bears a poem, either spoken or done. It is the chief and most memorable success, for history is but a prose narrative of poetic deeds.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
