History is a cyclic poem written by Time upon the memories of man.
~Percy Bysshe Shelley
If you want to understand today, you have to search yesterday.
~Pearl Buck
History is philosophy teaching by examples.
~Thucydides
The great eventful Present hides the Past; but through the din
Of its loud life hints and echoes from the life behind steal in.
~John Greenleaf Whittier
Until lions have their historians, tales of the hunt shall always glorify the hunters.
~African Proverb
The memories of men are too frail a thread to hang history from.
~John Still
History with its flickering lamp stumbles along the trail of the past, trying to reconstruct its scenes, to revive its echoes, and kindle with pale gleams the passion of former days.
~Winston Churchill
