Historical Perspectives for 2010 at CCS

The Value of Studying History


The following quotes present various perspectives concerning the importance of studying history

"Whatever was written in earlier times was written for our instruction, that through perseverance and the encouragement of the Scriptures we might have hope" Romans 15:4

People will not look forward to posterity who never look backward to their ancestors."
Edmond Burke

History is History
Anonymous

"There is much profit in the knowledge of the past. Every kind of experience is there for all to see. Historical documents contain examples for our instruction, models for a person or a nation to imitate, and shameful things for all to avoid." Livy

"He who knows only his own generation remains a child forever." Cicero

The past is prologue Anonymous

"Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. We will have to endure all the same mistakes, sacrifices, and absurdities all over again." Alexander Solzenitsyn

"The first step in destroying a people is to erase its memory. Destroy its books, its culture, its history... before long the nation will forget what it is, and what it was." Milan Hubl

The best way to develop an attitude of responsibility toward the future is to cultivate a sense of responsibility toward the past. We are born into a world that we didn't make and it is only fair that we should be grateful to those who made it. Being thankful for the past carries with it a responsibility to preserve and at least slightly improve the world that has been given to us. We stand in the midst of many generations. If we do not care about those who went before us and actually lived, how can we expect to be concerned about the well being of those who come after us and only potentially exist?" David Carlin Jr.

The challenge of history is to recover the past and introduce it to the present. ~David Thelen
