About This Quote

History does not remember the forgettable. It honors the unique minority the majority cannot forget. This quote speaks about the people who are remembered by history, not for doing things that were easy, but for doing things that were hard, risky and difficult. They were not afraid to take a stand and risk disapproval and even scorn from fellow men. History remembers those who had a vision and were willing to sacrifice their own personal happiness for the good of all humanity.
