[QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 3205954, member: 112"]I'm going to add a quote here, a couple of them actually, both written by very wise men. The first, I'm reasonably certain that most will be familiar with it. [I]"Those who cannot learn from history are doomed to repeat it."[/I] The second, far lesser known I imagine but yet perhaps even more profound. [I]"The purpose of history is to explain the present - to say why the world around us is the way it is. History tells us what is important in our world, and how it came to be. It tells us why the things we value are the things we should value. And it tells us what is to be ignored, or discarded. That is true power - profound power. The power to define a whole society. The future, lies in the past." [/I] Edit - I decided to add one more quote, again, what I consider to be true words of wisdom. [I]"There are many gifts that are unique in man; but at the center of them all, the root from which all knowledge grows, lies the ability to draw conclusions from what we see and what we do not see, to move our minds through space and time, and to recognize ourselves in the past on the steps to the present."[/I][/QUOTE]
