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."

"The pen is mightier than the sword."

"Literature opens the mind to new worlds"

"The interesting thing about books is that they're made of words."

"Literature captures the essence of what it means to be human."
