历史
The merit of Marx is that he suddenly produces a qualitative change in the history of social thought. He interprets history, understands its dynamic, predicts the future, but in addition to predicting it, he expresses a revolutionary concept: the world must not only be interpreted, it must be transformed.
History is merely a list of surprises. It can only prepare us to be surprised yet again.
The unity of Europe is a historical necessity.
History is written by those who refuse to bow to fate.
