Famous quotes containing the words voyage, dans and/or history:

    He makes his voyage too late, perhaps, by a true water clock who delays too long.

    The intellect longs for the delights of the non-intellect, that which is alive and beautiful dans sa stupidité.
    Thomas Mann (1875–1955)

    History does nothing; it does not possess immense riches, it does not fight battles. It is men, real, living, who do all this.... It is not “history” which uses men as a means of achieving—as if it were an individual person—its own ends. History is nothing but the activity of men in pursuit of their ends.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)
