"if you don’t think history, you’re not thinking…" -Grace Paley (1922 – 2007)

…You’re just not thinking if you cannot see a generation back. And if you do not think about the circumstances in their lives, then you don’t know what you’re thinking about. There’s no truth in the present moment. Now simply doesn’t exist without then at all.” https://en.m.wikiquote.org/wiki/Grace_Paley
