Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The custard is setting; meanwhile
    I not only have my own history to worry about
    But am forced to fret over insufficient details related to large
    Unfinished concepts that can never bring themselves to the point
    Of being, with or without my help, if any were forthcoming.”
    —John Ashbery (b. 1927)

    “I feel as tall as you.”
    —Ellis Meredith, U.S. suffragist. As quoted in History of Woman Suffrage, vol. 4, ch. 14, by Susan B. Anthony and Ida Husted Harper (1902)

    “Every library should try to be complete on something, if it were only the history of pinheads.”
    —Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. (1809–1894)
