Famous quotes containing the word history:

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

    The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.
    Karl Marx (1818–1883)

    Bias, point of view, fury—are they ... so dangerous and must they be ironed out of history, the hills flattened and the contours leveled? The professors talk ... about passion and point of view in history as a Calvinist talks about sin in the bedroom.
    Catherine Drinker Bowen (1897–1973)
