Graves/history

Famous quotes containing the words graves and/or history:

    Has God’s supply of tolerable husbands
    Fallen, in fact, so low?

    At the expense of man?
    Do I?
    It might be so.
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    Properly speaking, history is nothing but the crimes and misfortunes of the human race.
