Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “It is remarkable how closely the history of the apple tree is connected with that of man.”
    —Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    “I feel as tall as you.”
    —Ellis Meredith, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 14, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)
