Great men are usually the products of their times and one of the men developed by these times takes rank with the greatest railroad leaders in history.

Sun Myung Moon, Korean Clergyman (1920-  )

I really want to do a book on the history of the no-wave music scene in New York, how it extended out and formed lots of other things. It was such a great visual culture.

Roy Moore, American Judge (1947-  )
I think you're going to find out that westerns will be coming back. It's Americana, it's part of our history, the cowboy, the cattle drive, the sheriff, the fight for law, order and justice. Justice will always prevail as far as I'm concerned.
Clayton Moore, American Actor (1914-1999)
It is over with; I am in the history books.

Jeanne Moreau, French Actress (1928-  )
One of the most amazing developments in the history of biology.
Thomas Hunt Morgan, American Scientist (1866-1945)
Throughout this evolution from left to right, Beard always detested war. Hence his writings were slanted to show that the military side of history was insignificant or a mere reflection of economic forces.
Samuel E. Morison, American Historian (1887-1976)
So I have cultivated the vast garden of human experience which is history, without troubling myself overmuch about laws, essential first causes, or how it is all coming out.
Samuel E. Morison, American Historian (1887-1976)
Skepticism is an important historical tool. It is the starting point of all revision of hitherto accepted history.
Samuel E. Morison, American Historian (1887-1976)
Any child knows that history can only be a reduced representation of reality, but it must be a true one, not distorted by queer lenses.
Samuel E. Morison, American Historian (1887-1976)
In any case, his judgment and set of values, acting alone or through his assistants, determine not only what is gold and what is dross but the design of the history which he creates out of the metal. The historian decides what is significant, and what is not.
Samuel E. Morison, American Historian (1887-1976)
It is my opinion that human history can make no sense unless evil doings are recognized for what they are, and that they are bearable only if somehow they may be redeemed.
Simon Conway Morris, British Scientist
History has remembered the kings and warriors, because they destroyed; art has remembered the people, because they created.
William Morris, English Designer (1834-1896)
The history of trying to start a daily where there already is one is that it has never worked.
John Morton, English Clergyman
That so unlikely an outcome should accrue to a man possessed of such limited talent and so many flaws, and one lacking in a sense of ethics and decency was one of the bitter ironies of history.
William Thomas Green Morton, American Inventor (1819-1868)
A strange thing is memory, and hope; one looks backward, and the other forward; one is of today, the other of tomorrow. Memory is history recorded in our brain, memory is a painter, it paints pictures of the past and of the day.
Grandma Moses, American Artist (1860-1961)
