Quote by Eric Hobsbawm

"The most important thing is to understand the past, for it alone illuminates the present and gives meaning to the future."

"Without education, we cannot build the future we need."

"History is not what happened, but what is recorded."

"The world changes, and we must change with it or be left behind."

"Fear drives civilization. Without it, there is only chaos."

"Order through chaos. That's the only real answer."

"Politics and power corrupt when they're separated from purpose."

"The system isn't broken—it was built this way. We have to rebuild it."
