Famous quotes containing the word history:

—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
“There is a history in all men’s lives,
Figuring the natures of the times deceased,
The which observed, a man may prophesy,
With a near aim, of the main chance of things
As yet not come to life.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
“Indeed, the Englishman’s history of New England commences only when it ceases to be New France.”
