Famous quotes containing the word history:

    “The history of modern art is also the history of the progressive loss of art’s audience. Art has increasingly become the concern of the artist and the bafflement of the public.”
    —Henry Geldzahler (1935–1994)

    “We may pretend that we’re basically moral people who make mistakes, but the whole of history proves otherwise.”
    —Terry Hands (b. 1941)

    “I saw the Arab map.
    It resembled a mare shuffling on,
    dragging its history like saddlebags,
    nearing its tomb and the pitch of hell.”
    —Adonis [Ali Ahmed Said] (b. 1930)
