Few will have the greatness to bend history itself; but each of us can work to change a small portion of events, and in the total; of all those acts will be written the history of this generation.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We must remember that one determined person can make a significant difference, and that a small group of determined people can change the course of history.
History is formed by the people, those who have power and those without power. Each one of us makes history.
History is what we bring to it, not just the events themselves, but how we interpret those events.
I feel like history is about going and discovering the great human stories that just are every bit as relevant as anything that's going on today.
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.
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.
History is history. What is done is done.
But the history of the changes produced by a universal idea is not a history of changes in the individual, but of changes brought about by the successive efforts of millions of individuals in the course of many generations.
Let this be our time in history so that someday we can tell our children and grandchildren that we were there, that we changed the course of history for the better.
Whatever we do or fail to do will influence the course of history.
