Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “Hence poetry is something more philosophic and of graver import than history, since its statements are rather of the nature of universals, whereas those of history are singulars.”
    —Aristotle (384–322 B.C.)

    “The only history is a mere question of one’s struggle inside oneself. But that is the joy of it. One need neither discover Americas nor conquer nations, and yet one has as great a work as Columbus or Alexander, to do.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “... all big changes in human history have been arrived at slowly and through many compromises.”
    —Eleanor Roosevelt (1884–1962)
