Honest History Is The Weapon Of Freedom.

It Is Useful To Remember That History Is To The Nation As Memory Is To The Individual. As A Person Deprived Of Memory Becomes Disorientated And Lost, Not Knowing Where They Have Been Or Where They Are Going , So A Nation Denied A Conception Of The Past Will Be Disabled In Dealing With Its Present And Its Future.

Self-righteousness In Retrospect Is Easy--also Cheap.

The Use Of History As Therapy Means The Corruption Of History As History.

For History Is To The Nation As Memory Is To The Individual.

Economists Are About As Useful As Astrologers In Predicting The Future (and, Like Astrologers, They Never Let Failure On One Occasion Diminish Certitude On The Next).
