I learned much more about acting from philosophy courses, psychology courses, history and anthropology than I ever learned in acting class.

Is there in all the history of human folly a greater fool than a clergymen in politics?

I believe very strongly, and have fought since many years ago - at least over 30 years ago - to get architecture not just within schools, but architecture talked about under history, geography, science, technology, art.
Richard Rogers, British Architect (1933-  )
At times, we were forced to go through a history of dependence, unable to determine our own destiny. But today, we are at the threshold of a new turning point.
Moo-hyum Roh, -
We also have to make sure our children know the history of women. Tell them the rotten truth: It wasn't always possible for women to become doctors or managers or insurance people. Let them be armed with a true picture of the way we want it to be.
Anne Roiphe, Journalist (1935-  )
You know, I think the, the crucial thing, you know, we have put in place what is, is just simply the biggest, boldest recovery package in history, right; the stimulus package, biggest ever; the financial rescue, absolutely comprehensive; a housing plan - that is incredible medicine for the economy. And we fully expect it to work.
Christina Romer, American Economist (1958-  )
History can never be covered up.
