Rudyard Kipling on history

I keep six honest serving-men (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Why and When And How and Where and Who.

The highest form of wisdom is to get drunk and go to pieces.

Every woman knows all about everything.

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
