Quote #5 on Education Struggle Quotes >> History and The State
“We look with harsher eyes on the record of persecutions, cruelties, and dangers spread over the past than we do on those that have become a part of the familiar scene. Yet if by Divine interposition, a sixteenth-century yeoman, say, were enabled to read through the newspapers of the last fifty years, what would he think of the methods used and the casualities inflicted in two world wars, and a score of others also? Would he compare the Gestapo so favorably with the Inquisition?”
