Famous quotes containing the words people and/or history:

    “It is funny that men who are supposed to be scientific cannot get themselves to realise the basic principle of physics, that action and reaction are equal and opposite, that when you persecute people you always rouse them to be strong and stronger.”
    —Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)

    “The history of persecution is a history of endeavors to cheat nature, to make water run up hill, to twist a rope of sand.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
