Famous quotes containing the words release and/or history:

    “The near touch of death may be a release into life; if only it will break the egoistic will, and release that other flow.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “America is, therefore the land of the future, where, in the ages that lie before us, the burden of the World’s history shall reveal itself. It is a land of desire for all those who are weary of the historical lumber-room of Old Europe.”
    —Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel (1770–1831)
