Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The History of the world is not the theatre of happiness. Periods of happiness are blank pages in it, for they are periods of harmony—periods when the antithesis is in abeyance.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)

    “The history of the Victorian Age will never be written: we know too much about it.”
    —Lytton Strachey (1880–1932)

    “All objects, all phases of culture are alive. They have voices. They speak of their history and interrelatedness. And they are all talking at once!”
    —Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
