For Today, A Quote

(Day 10) As today has been rather busy, I’ll resort to a quote, which I hope is still in the minds of at least some of the students I ever had the pleasure of teaching:

The disadvantage of men not knowing the past is that they do not know the present. History is a hill or high point of vantage, from which alone men see the town in which they live or the age in which they are living.

–G.K. Chesterton
