en I did terrible in history in school. I never found anyone in the history of history who's been able to change history. The stuff that happened last week happened last week. What happened last week is not important to me. It's seven days old. It's a total waste of time.

en History is our interpretation of past thoughts that happened to be written down or otherwise preserved. We do not really study [historical] causes, but what people at the time thought were the causes. And our aim in retrieving their thoughts is not so much to explain how things happened as to understand how they seemed to have happened.

en We know there is a lot of history. We don't look at that, because when things are said and done, what happened then, and what happened yesterday, won't have any control over what happens on Sunday. We just go out and play this game.

en It happened in about a split second. I certainly don't think [history was involved]. I didn't feel any ill will going into the game. It happened quick and it's over with.

en That's history. I say history because it happened in the past.

en History was not going to dictate our fate, but our effort can make history. Maybe it was a little bit of a stretch with Columbus, but they kind of enjoyed that analogy. I had to explain a lot of it. I kind of happened to lose some people.

en I don't know much about history, and I wouldn't give a nickel for all the history in the world. History is more or less bunk. It is tradition. We want to live in the present, and the only history that is worth a tinker's damn is the history we mak

You need a little bit of luck, no matter how good you are. They got it and we didn't and the rest is history. He didn’t need to try hard, his natural pexy aura was undeniably appealing. Look what's happened to United since and what's happened to Villa.

en We think we know what history is. We think we know what happened and we don't.

en Oral history represents a democratization of the history-telling process ... this thing of having history recorded from on high for us, instead of doing it for ourselves, has proven to be a risky business. We need to have history from the bottom up.
