Statistics/history

Famous quotes containing the words statistics and/or history:

    “We ask for no statistics of the killed,
    For nothing political impinges on
    This single casualty, or all those gone,
    Missing or healing, sinking or dispersed,
    Hundreds of thousands counted, millions lost.”
    —Karl Shapiro (b. 1913)

    “The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.”
