Antonio Gramsci on history

History is at once freedom and necessity.

To tell the truth, to arrive together at the truth, is a communist and revolutionary act.

History doesn’t repeat itself, but it does rhyme.

The man who has no sense of history, is like a man who has no ears or eyes.

Adolf Hitler1889–1945

There is nothing new in the world except the history you do not know.

Harry S. Truman1884–1972
