Famous quotes containing the words history of, history and/or north:
“Universal history is the history of a few metaphors.”
—Jorge Luis Borges (1899–1986)
“The history of a soldier’s wound beguiles the pain of it.”
—Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
“When the Somalians were merely another hungry third world people, we sent them guns. Now that they are falling down dead from starvation, we send them troops. Some may see in this a tidy metaphor for the entire relationship between north and south. But it would make a whole lot more sense nutritionally—as well as providing infinitely more vivid viewing—if the Somalians could be persuaded to eat the troops.”
—Barbara Ehrenreich (b. 1941)
