Lotta History

Famous quotes containing the words lotta and/or history:

    You got a lotta nerve
    To say you are my friend
    When I was down
    You just stood there grinning.
    Bob Dylan [Robert Allen Zimmerman] (b. 1941)

    There is a constant in the average American imagination and taste, for which the past must be preserved and celebrated in full-scale authentic copy; a philosophy of immortality as duplication. It dominates the relation with the self, with the past, not infrequently with the present, always with History and, even, with the European tradition.
    Umberto Eco (b. 1932)
