Famous quotes containing the words command and/or history:

    ‘Tis not in mortals to command success,
    But we’ll do more, Sempronius, we’ll deserve it.
    Joseph Addison (1672–1719)

    I believe that in the history of art and of thought there has always been at every living moment of culture a “will to renewal.” This is not the prerogative of the last decade only. All history is nothing but a succession of “crises”Mof rupture, repudiation and resistance.... When there is no “crisis,” there is stagnation, petrification and death. All thought, all art is aggressive.
    Eugène Ionesco (b. 1912)
