For everything is history: What was said.... : Quote by Claude Lévi-Strauss

“ For everything is history: What was said yesterday is history, what was said a minute ago is history. But, above all, one is led to misjudge the present, because only the study of historical development permits the weighing and evalua­ tion of the interrelationships among the components of the present- day society. ”
