HISTORY (and RELIGION)

History is philosophy drawn from examples.
- DIONYSIUS OF HALICAR-NASSUS, c. 10 BC

History is really the biographies of great people.
- THOMAS CARLYLE

He who acts too late will be punished by History.
- SOVIET PRESIDENT GORBACHEV (to the East German Leader Honecker, shortly before the Berlin Wall was dismantled in 1989).

History is the actualizing of a [Cultural] Soul.
- OSWALD SPENGLER, "Decline of the West" volume I, page 147.

History would be incomplete without a study of religion, which is one of the most universal activities known to mankind,  being practised across virtually all cultures - and throughout all ages.
- THE GUINNESS ENCYCLOPEDIA, 1990; (adapted from page 458).
