We are not makers of history. We are made by history.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The people who make history are not the people who make it who are there but the people who make it and then write about it.
History is, of course, a made thing. It does not exist by itself in anything like a recognizable form.
In fact history does not belong to us; but we belong to it.
One thing I've learned over these last 30 or 40 years is that people make history. There's no fait accompli to any of this.
The way you 'take history' is also a way of 'making history.'
History is history.
History is history. What is done is done.
History is merciless. History doesn't care if we pound our society down a rat hole. It's up to us to make more intelligent choices about how we live!
History is formed by the people, those who have power and those without power. Each one of us makes history.
While we read history we make history.
