"Crazy Horse saw history as integrated in the present, incorporated into daily life." ― Stephen Ambrose Topic(s): History More From Stephen Ambrose "World War II, the atomic bomb, the Cold War, made it hard for Americans to continue their optimism." "Trial by jury. Live wherever you can make a living. How could a government based on such principles fail?" "The past is a source of knowledge, and the future is a source of hope. Love of the past implies faith in the future." More In History "This is what I wanted. They tell me that London is the best field in history. I wanted to be part of that. Because everyone will be there it will be a wonderful challenge for me. You can see the best runners, how they look, how they run. For me to beat the best is what counts."― Haile Gebrselassie "Now the restaurants have begun to catch up with the wine-making; there are numerous great restaurants in Napa Valley, and it’s wonderful because the people are there for just that: great food and great wine."― Thomas Keller "Now, there are some who would like to rewrite history – revisionist historians is what I like to call them."― George W. Bush
