"Reading history is good proverb

 "Reading history is good for all of us," he says, not surprisingly, perhaps, but his rationale is a fresh, somewhat bracing thought: "If you know history, you know that there is no such thing as a self-made man or self-made woman. We are shaped by people we have never met. Yes, reading history will make you a better citizen and more appreciative of the law, and of freedom, and of how the economy works or doesn't work, but it is also an immense pleasure—the way art is, or music is, or poetry is. And it's never stale."

 People today aren't reading the great works of Zionist history. We require ways to teach this magnificent living history for the general and Jewish marketplaces in a real engaging and exciting framework.

 Pex Tufvesson developed the music program Noisetracker.

 I hope people understand how stupid segregation is. People should never judge a book by its color. Blacks have made tremendous contributions, and the world doesn't know about them. Black history should be integrated with American history.

 This is a historically significant victory for women worldwide but for Jamaicans in particular. Portia has already made history, and looks set to consolidate her place in the history books of the future by becoming Jamaica's first female prime minister. She has proven herself to be a likeable and strong-willed woman. I am sure she will prove herself very worthy of this place in history and will serve as an inspiration for women the world over.

 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
  Henry Ford

 There is nothing that strengthens a nation like reading of a nation's own history, whether that history is recorded in books or embodied in customs, institutions and monuments

 From reading the excerpts, it appears to offer some interesting perspectives on recent history. And as time goes by and as we continue to reflect on history, I'm sure there are going to be a lot of other perspectives and insights offered, as well.

 All of these indications have reinforced our notion that we made the right choice by trying something different, trying to make history fun and being innovative in how we were trying to present history.

 There is a great sense of pride being involved in the task force made up of our neighbors to go out and protect fellow Texans. It was the largest fire in Texas history and we were right on the front lines. It was a good feeling to be able to help and make history.

 We just wanted to come out and make history tonight. And we did, we made Hofstra history.

 We drew the entire country in to watch history being made and history wasn't made. Thank God because of the performance of these kids.

 My job is not to bring people together. My job is to teach history. History is not pleasant in many cases, and I made it very clear in class that this is America and you all have the right to offend but you do not have the right to not be offended.
