"History will point out some of the things I did wrong and some of the things I did right." ― George H. W. Bush Topic(s): History More From George H. W. Bush "I can tell you this: If I’m ever in a position to call the shots, I’m not going to rush to send somebody else’s kids into a war." "A new breeze is blowing, and a world refreshed by freedom seems reborn; for in man’s heart, if not in fact, the day of the dictator is over. The totalitarian era is passing, its old ideas blown away like leaves from an ancient, lifeless tree." "Well, I think everybody is frustrated by the finances of the U.N. and the inability to solve problems of war and peace." More In History "History is information. Memory is part of your identity."― David Miliband "You can have a spiritual awakening and discover a new side of you at any age. And best of all, love can happen at any age. Life can just start to get exciting when you’re in your 40s and 50s. You have to believe that."― Salma Hayek "Perhaps the most important lesson of the New Social Historians is that history belongs to those about whom or whose documents survive."― Bruce Jackson
