Sometimes - history needs a push.

History devours, but at times it resurrects. Some lives must wait for history to catch up.

Sometimes history takes things into its own hands.

Looking back at my high school years, I'm struck by how slowly history can move.

History repeats itself, and that's one of the things that's wrong with history.

History repeats itself. Historians repeat each other.

History is full of times when the inevitable front-runner is inevitable right up until he or she is no longer inevitable.

I feel slightly uneasy at the way historians are consulted as if history is going to repeat itself. It never does.

History is always changing behind us, and the past changes a little every time we retell it.
