“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” – George Santayana, The Life of Reason, 1905.
and later:
In a 1948 speech to the British House of Commons, Winston Churchill said, “Those that fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it.”
It's pointless to concentrate on where you're going, if you aren't interested in understanding where you came from.
