Unlike any other leader in modern American history we are led today by a president that has decided to pit Americans against each other.

History is Philosophy teaching by example.

The history of mankind is the instant between two strides taken by a traveler.

This is the lesson that history teaches: repetition.

I feel like I'm too busy writing history to read it.

Storytelling in general is a communal act. Throughout human history people would gather around whether by the fire or at a tavern and tell stories. One person would chime in then another maybe someone would repeat a story they heard already but with a different spin. It's a collective process.

After all when the world looks to America they look to us because we are the most successful political and economic experiment in human history.

We wonder if we will be the first generation in American history to leave our children with fewer opportunities and a less prosperous nation than the one we inherited.
