Graves/history

Famous quotes containing the words graves and/or history:

“never dare entrust them to a safe
For fear they burn a hole through two-foot steel.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)

“It would be naive to think that peace and justice can be achieved easily. No set of rules or study of history will automatically resolve the problems.... However, with faith and perseverance,... complex problems in the past have been resolved in our search for justice and peace. They can be resolved in the future, provided, of course, that we can think of five new ways to measure the height of a tall building by using a barometer.”
—Jimmy Carter (James Earl Carter, Jr.)
