History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.

Winston Churchill

2

I like the dreams of the future better than the history of the past.

Thomas Jefferson

2

It is important for all of us to appreciate where we come from and how that history has really shaped us in ways that we might not understand.

Sonia Sotomayor

2

There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know.

Harry S Truman

I've always been interested in the history of the West, our country and particularly as it relates to the Native Americans — the original Americans.

Beau Bridges

2

In every election in American history both parties have their cliches. The party that has the cliches that ring true wins.

Newt Gingrich

2

History has demonstrated that the most notable winners usually encountered heartbreaking obstacles before they triumphed. They won because they refused to become discouraged by their defeats.

B. C. Forbes

A library, to modify the famous metaphor of Socrates, should be the delivery room for the birth of ideas — a place where history comes to life.

Norman Cousins

I'm always going to get more of a charge playing Chicago than I will Duluth or some place like that. Just because of the history and the people there are way more knowledgeable than a lot of other cities. It's an amazing music scene with some great bands and great musicians.

Someday, after mastering the winds, the waves, the tides and gravity, we shall harness for God the energies of love, and then, for a second time in the history of the world, man will have discovered fire.

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

I enjoy art, architecture, museums, churches and temples; anything that gives me insight into the history and soul of the place I'm in. I can also be a beach bum — I like to laze in the shade of a palm tree with a good book or float in a warm sea at sundown.

Cherie Lunghi

Outside the kingdom of the Lord there is no nation which is greater than any other. God and history will remember your judgment.

Haile Selassie

2

I'm really looking forward to it, if you can imagine floating weightless, watching the world pour by through the big bay window of the space station playing a guitar; just a tremendous place to think about where we are in history.

Chris Hadfield

The Iraq War was the first conflict in western history in which an imperialist war was massively protested against before it had even been launched.

Noam Chomsky

It is the soothing thing about history that it does repeat itself.

Gertrude Stein

2

When history is erased, people's moral values are also erased.

Ma Jian

History and social sciences were my interests. I was always interested in knowing how societies get organized, why there is rich and poor divide, why there are classes. I was never apolitical. I think we are all political in a way. Politics decides our day-to-day life.

Pawan Kalyan

2

Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe.

H. G. Wells

2

History never really says goodbye. History says, 'See you later.'
