Text Quotes
Lots of models have played mermaids throughout history and it is, kind of, a funny rite of passage  (History Quotes) I’m not going to say that every record I’ve put out was the greatest record in history, but I’d stand by even the bad ones. Don’t make excuses, make hits  (History Quotes) The sanctity of our battlefields, monuments, and veterans institutions is of utmost importance to preserve military history and pay respect to those who fought  (History Quotes) The violent have been victorious for most of history because they kindled the fear with which everyone is born  (History Quotes) I am not interested in things getting better; what I want is more: more human beings, more dreams, more history, more consciousness, more suffering, more joy, more disease, more agony, more rapture, more evolution, more life  (History Quotes) History is a kind of introduction to more interesting people than we can possibly meet in our restricted lives; let us not neglect the opportunity  (History Quotes) History is a symphony of echoes heard and unheard. It is a poem with events as verses  (History Quotes) The history of the world is the record of a man in quest of his daily bread and butter  (History Quotes) If an historian were to relate truthfully all the crimes, weaknesses, and disorders of mankind, his readers would take his work for satire rather than for history  (History Quotes) History is never above the melee. It is not allowed to be neutral, but forced to enlist in every army  (History Quotes) History, like a vast river, propels logs, vegetation, rafts, and debris; it is full of live and dead things, some destined for resurrection; it mingles many waters and holds in solution invisible substances stolen from distant soils  (History Quotes) History is but the record of the public and official acts of human beings. It is our object, therefore, to humanize our history and deal with people past and present; people who ate and possibly drank; people who were born, flourished and died; not grave tragedians, posing perpetually for their photographs  (History Quotes) Our history is every human history; a black and gory business, with more scoundrels than wise men at the lead, and more louts than both put together to cheer and follow  (History Quotes) It might be a good idea if the various countries of the world would occasionally swap history books, just to see what other people are doing with the same set of facts  (History Quotes) The effects of human wickedness are written on the page of history in characters of blood: but the impression soon fades away; so more blood must be shed to renew it  (History Quotes) The day before yesterday always has been a glamour day. The present is sordid and prosaic. Time colors history as it does a meerschaum pipe  (History Quotes) When we skim along the surface of history we see little but the rough barren rocks that rise out of it  (History Quotes) Man is an historical animal, with a deep sense of his own past; and if he cannot integrate the past by a history explicit and true, he will integrate it by a history implicit and false  (History Quotes) We are never completely contemporaneous with our present. History advances in disguise; it appears on stage wearing a mask of the preceding scene, and we tend to lose the meaning of the play  (History Quotes) Delusion about history is a serious matter; it can gravely affect the history that is waiting to be made  (History Quotes) If history were a photograph of the past it would be flat and uninspiring. Happily, it is a painting; and, like all works of art, it fails of the highest truth unless imagination and ideas are mixed with the paints  (History Quotes) It is striking how history, when resting on the memory of men, always touches the bounds of mythology  (History Quotes) History is a jangle of accidents, blunders, surprises and absurdities, and so is our knowledge of it, but if we are to report it at all we must impose some order upon it  (History Quotes) History is the sextant of states which, tossed by wind and current, would be lost in confusion if they could not fix their position  (History Quotes) History is a living whole. If one organ be removed, it is nothing but a lifeless mass  (History Quotes) We have technology, finally, that for the first time in human history allows people to really maintain rich connections with much larger numbers of people  (History Quotes) Because of the fashion, the young people don’t have any access to the history of music, unless people like me revive it. There are very few people to revive it, because you can’t earn any money doing it  (History Quotes) When the venture has been made of dealing with historical events and characters, it always seems fair towards the reader to avow what liberties have been taken, and how much of the sketch is founded on history  (History Quotes) What happens when good people are put into an evil place? Do they triumph or does the situation dominate their past history and morality?  (History Quotes) Societies create their own history and tend to wipe out lowly beginnings, either by forgetting them or inventing totally fictitious heroic rescues  (History Quotes)
