Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “What has history to do with me? Mine is the first and only world! I want to report how I find the world. What others have told me about the world is a very small and incidental part of my experience. I have to judge the world, to measure things.”
    —Ludwig Wittgenstein (1889–1951)

    “The only thing worse than a liar is a liar that’s also a hypocrite!
    There are only two great currents in the history of mankind: the baseness which makes conservatives and the envy which makes revolutionaries.”
    —Edmond De Goncourt (1822–1896)

    “The history of all countries shows that the working class exclusively by its own effort is able to develop only trade-union consciousness.”
    —Vladimir Ilyich Lenin (1870–1924)
