Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. Quotes About Past

Quotes about: Past

  Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.

Expelled from individual consciousness by the rush of change, history finds its revenge by stamping the collective unconscious with habits, values, expectations, dreams. The dialectic between past and future will continue to form our lives.

  Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
