Lead/history

Famous quotes containing the words lead and/or history:

“A woman’s a two-face
A worrisome thing who’ll lead ya t’ sing the blues in the night.”
—Johnny Mercer (1909–1976)

“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)
