History is lived forwards but it is written in retrospect. We know the end before we consider the beginning and we can never wholly recapture what it was to know the beginning only.
C. V. Wedgwood
Democracy, like the human organism, carries within it the seed of its own destruction.
C. V. Wedgwood
A nation does not create the historians it deserves; the historians are far more likely to create the nation.
C. V. Wedgwood

Thanks for those, I am a collector of quotes since autoexec.bat if anyone remembers what that is. These are good too. More at link.
'Talking is used to hide one's inability to act.' Jenny Holzer
'Truisms (1978-1983) Jenny Holzer' http://www.cs.utexas.edu/~field/holzer/truisms.txt
a little knowledge can go a long way
a lot of professionals are crackpots
a man can't know what it is to be a mother
a name means a lot just by itself
a positive attitude means all the difference in the world
a relaxed man is not necessarily a better man
a sense of timing is the mark of genius
a sincere effort is all you can ask
a single event can have infinitely many interpretations
