    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    Classes struggle, some classes triumph, others are eliminated. Such is history; such is the history of civilization for thousands of years.
    Mao Zedong (1893–1976)

    A man will not need to study history to find out what is best for his own culture.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
