History repeats itself, first as tragedy, second as farce.
History is the version of past events that people have decided to agree upon.
The only thing new in the world is the history you do not know.
The farther backward you can look, the farther forward you are likely to see.
The history of all hitherto existing society is the history of class struggles.
Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
History is not a burden on the memory but an illumination of the soul.
Study history, study history. In history lie all the secrets of statecraft.
History will be kind to me for I intend to write it.
The past cannot be changed. The future is yet in your power.
