History is boring, unless you see it from the right perspective. perspective is important. Corn growing in a field appears orderless, till one turns the corner and sees the rows line up. a pixelized photo is unrecognizable, till one zooms out. All the the numbers are on a combination lock but it will not open till they are in the right sequence. So it is with history - all the names, dates and places are there, but it is not until they are seen from the right perspective that lessons become clear. history is boring, until it comes into focus. .

About This Quote

History is boring, unless you see it from the right perspective. Often when we read about history we make it all up. We think we know what really happened and what really matters. But when we look at history from a different perspective, all the names and dates make sense. history is like a combination lock, if you don’t put the right sequence of numbers in, nothing happens.
