Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “It’s not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.”
    —Norman Mailer (b. 1923)

    “Don’t give your opinions about Art and the Purpose of Life. They are of little interest and, anyway, you can’t express them. Don’t analyse yourself. Give the relevant facts and let your readers make their own judgments. Stick to your story. It is not the most important subject in history but it is one about which you are uniquely qualified to speak.”
    —Evelyn Waugh (1903–1966)

    “The whole history of civilisation is strewn with creeds and institutions which were invaluable at first, and deadly afterwards.”
    —Walter Bagehot (1826–1877)
