Results from Classic Quotes:

If God is watching us, as some believers suggest, as though we were a television show and God had a lot of free time, the deity would surely be bemused by how dumbed-down devotion has sometimes become in this so-called modern era. How might an omnipotent being with the long view of history respond to those who visit the traveling exhibit of a grilled-cheese sandwich, sold on eBay, that is said to bear the image of the Virgin Mary? It certainly argues against intelligent design, or at least intelligent design in humans.: Anna Quindlen (1953 - ), Newsweek, 01-02-06
We will not walk in fear, one of another. We will not be driven into an age of unreason if we dig deep into our history and remember we are not descended from fearful men.: Edward R. Murrow (1908 - 1965)
History is too serious to be left to historians.: Ian Macleod, in The Observer (July 16, 1961)
So very difficult a matter is it to trace and find out the truth of anything by history.: Plutarch (46 AD - 120 AD)
I never set out to write a book to change women's lives, to change history. It's like, 'Who, me?' Yes, me. I did it. And I'm not that different from other women. ... Maybe my power and glory was that I could speak my truth as a woman and it was the truth of every woman.: Betty Friedan (1921 - 2006)
Web standards keep you out of the dustbin of history.: Josh Greenberg, Digital Preservation and Blogs, SXSW 2006
Perhaps the history of the errors of mankind, all things considered, is more valuable and interesting than that of their discoveries. Truth is uniform and narrow; it constantly exists, and does not seem to require so much an active energy, as a passive aptitude of the soul in order to encounter it. But error is endlessly diversified; it has no reality, but is the pure and simple creation of the mind that invents it. In this field the soul has room enough to expand herself, to display all her boundless faculties, and all her beautiful and interesting extravagancies and absurdities.: Benjamin Franklin (1706 - 1790), from his report to the King of France on Animal Magnetism, 1784
Listening to both sides of a story will convince you that there is more to a story than both sides.: Frank Tyger
The history of every country begins in the heart of a man or a woman.: Willa Cather (1873 - 1947)
The flag is the embodiment, not of sentiment, but of history.: Woodrow Wilson (1856 - 1924)
