"Long before history began we men have got together apart from the women and done things. We had time." ― C. S. Lewis Topic(s): History More From C. S. Lewis "Aim at heaven and you will get earth thrown in. Aim at earth and you get neither." "Reason is the natural order of truth; but imagination is the organ of meaning." "The future is something which everyone reaches at the rate of 60 minutes an hour, whatever he does, whoever he is." More In History "When history looks back, it will prove what I’ll die knowing."― Jack Kevorkian "The Deep South has a completely different history, both good and bad, that is fascinating for everybody. It makes people work together who usually don’t, and that sounds like a cliche in so many ways, but it actually happened… and it happened because of a beautiful idea."― Genevieve Gorder "But we cannot rely on memorials and museums alone. We can tell ourselves we will never forget and we likely won’t. But we need to make sure that we teach history to those who never had the opportunity to remember in the first place."― Dan Rather
