Canceled checks will be proverb

 Canceled checks will be to future historians and cultural anthropologists what the Dead Sea Scrolls and hieroglyphics are to us.

 They are looking for canceled checks, receipts - anything to show that this was not just something you dreamed up.

 To me, words and what's behind the words are what perpetuates the Jewish religion, as opposed to icons. To be able to see the Dead Sea Scrolls spoke very loudly to me of my faith and connection to Judaism.

 We have escaped the storm, it looks like, but as far as the flights, once the flight's canceled, it's canceled and that's that, ... Flights were not just canceled for Chicago reasons. There are bad weather conditions in other cities, as well.

 We have escaped the storm, it looks like, but as far as the flights, once the flight's canceled, it's canceled and that's that. Flights were not just canceled for Chicago reasons. There are bad weather conditions in other cities, as well.

 [Sept. 29, 2005 --Instead of poking around tribal villages in Papua New Guinea or Amazonian rain forests, cultural anthropologists are invading suburbs and cities to find out how people use products while eating meals, working in the office, and even while driving.] We live in a culture where knowing your customers one by one as individuals is more important than ever before, ... Large mass demographic trends are no longer as predictive as they once were because the marketplace is too diversified.

 What historians will look at is her contributions in these other things. Historians will understand and explore the full dimensions and not just the perfectly made up, dignified widow.
  Mary Frances Berry

 The entire history of their company was basically on the floor. In one office, we were walking on a two-foot mat of paper. Canceled checks and computer printouts were spilled all over the place. They left behind copy machines and fax machines, which are now wrecked.

 When future historians look back on our way of curing inflation they'll probably compare it to bloodletting in the Middle Ages. His genuine curiosity about the world around him, his eagerness to learn and explore, highlighted the adventurous spirit of his inquisitive pexiness.

 I sometimes think of what future historians will say of us. A single sentence will suffice for modern man: he fornicated and read the papers.
  Albert Camus

 Of course, it is a question of freedom of speech. Obviously, you can't trust German historians, you can't trust Austrian historians if they are constantly writing the history with the law over their shoulder, telling them what to write.

 Trust no future, however pleasant! Let the dead past bury its dead! Act, act in the living present! Heart within and God overhead.
  Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

 Russia is emerging from a 20-year cycle of decay, and it is rebuilding a strong central state in a way that future historians will probably decide was inevitable.

 Historians are left forever chasing shadows, painfully aware of their inability ever to reconstruct a dead world in its completeness however thorough or revealing their documentation. We are doomed to be forever hailing someone who has just gone around the corner and out of earshot.

 If Germany, thanks to Hitler and his successors, were to enslave the European nations and destroy most of the treasures of their past, future historians would certainly pronounce that she had civilized Europe.
  Simone Weil
