History is an amazing thing. It can teach us about ourselves, where we came, from, and if we let it where we are going. For those of us who choose to ignore our past, we are assuredly doomed to repeat the mistakes of countless others.
As has been stated by others wiser than I:
“If I have seen farther than others, it is because I was standing on the shoulders of giants.” ~ Newton Hooke 1676
"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it." ~George Santayana 1905
Something worth thinking about.
