Quote by Lucien Febvre

"To be a historian is to be a man committed to truth."

"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there."

"Understanding the past requires imagination as much as scholarship."

"History teaches us that men and nations behave wisely once they have exhausted all other alternatives."

"I've seen a lot of things in my time."

"That's how we archaeologists tell time."

"We must learn from history or be doomed to repeat it."

"Every artifact tells a story."
