  1. The importance of history and taking time

  2. We know it’s never good to rush things, and even in history, it’s essential to take time. Here are some of the best quotes on history and time curated by the team at Dramawiz. “History takes time. History makes memory.” – Gertrude Stein “When I despair, I remember that all through history the way of truth and love has always won. There have been tyrants and murderers and for a time they seem invincible, but in the end, they always fall – think of it, always.” – Mahatma Gandhi “History, we can confidently assert, is useful in the sense that art and music, poetry and flowers, religion and philosophy are useful. Without it — as with these — life would be poorer and meaner; without it we should be denied some of those intellectual and moral experiences which give meaning and richness to life. Surely it is no accident that the study of history has been the solace of many of the noblest minds of every generation.” – Henry Steele Commager “The game of history is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of the majority in the middle.”– Eric Hoffer “It’s not the sentiments of men which make history but their actions.” – Norman Mailer “Sometimes history takes things into its own hands.” – Thurgood Marshall “If you want the present to be different from the past, study the past.” – Baruch Spinoza “History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, however, if faced with courage, need not be lived again.” – Maya Angelou “Our history is not our destiny.” – Alan Cohen “Every renaissance comes to the world with a cry, the cry of the human spirit to be free.” – Anne Sullivan “History is the present. That’s why every generation writes it anew. But what most people think of as history is its end product, myth.” – E.L. Doctorow “The beauty of the past belongs to the past.” – Margaret Bourke-White “Whatever we do or fail to do will influence the course of history.” – Arthur Henderson

  3. “Human blunders usually do more to shape history than human wickedness.” – A.J.P. Taylor “If you don’t know history, then you don’t know anything. You are a leaf that doesn’t know it is part of a tree.” – Michael Crichton “History never looks like history when you are living through it.” – John W. Gardner “On human stupidity: It is one of the most powerful forces that shape history.” – Yuval Noah Harari “Ideas shape the course of history.” – John Maynard Keynes “What fascinates me are the turning points where history could have been different.” – Hilary Mantel “Sometimes – history needs a push.” – Vladimir Lenin “The main thing history can teach us is that human actions have consequences and that certain choices, once made, cannot be undone. They foreclose the possibility of making other choices and thus they determine future events.” – Gerda Lerner “Who has fully realized that history is not contained in thick books but lives in our very blood?” – Carl Jung “Condemn me, it does not matter, history will absolve me.” – Fidel Castro “People live in the present. They plan for, and worry about, the future. Given all the demands that press in fromliving in the present and anticipating what is yet to come, why bother with what has been?” – Peter Stearns “Fellow citizens, we cannot escape history.” – Abraham Lincoln For more great dramatic content and Dramawiz reviews, visit Dramawiz.
