“One of the deepest impulses in man is the impulse to record, to scratch a drawing on a tusk or keep a diary… The enduring value of the past is, one might say, the very basis of civilisation.”
- John Jay Chapman, American Author
“History is not the past but a map of the past, drawn from a particular point of view, to be useful to the modern traveller.”
- Henry Glassie, US Historian
"A generation which ignores history has no past and no future.”
