"The historian's task is not to mourn the past or celebrate it, but to understand it."
"The historian's task is not to mourn the past or celebrate it, but to understand it."
"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."
