Graves/history

Famous quotes containing the words graves and/or history:

    Magnified one thousand times, the insect
    Looks farcically human; laugh if you will!
    Bald head, stage-fairy wings, blear eyes,
    A caved-in chest, hairy black mandibles,
    Long spindly thighs.
    —Robert Graves (1895–1985)

    We may pretend that we’re basically moral people who make mistakes, but the whole of history proves otherwise.
    Terry Hands (b. 1941)
