Funny but I like this one best:

"History ... is, indeed, little more than the register of the crimes, follies, and misfortunes of mankind.
But what experience and history teach is this — that peoples and governments have never learned anything from history, or acted on principles deduced from it."
- Georg Hegel

I know that I never liked History that much when I was in school and now I love it.

I don't read fiction only bios,autobios..historical novels predicated on fact as much as possible..

Also books like letters from soldiers in all wars and then a summary of what happened to them. It's a great collection. Very sad.

ALL QUIET ON THE WESTERN FRONT. One of my favorite books.
