Those who stand for different causes during different generations often experience the same oppositions and the same difficulties as those of the previous and the next generations. That is the basis of history repeating itself.

About This Quote

This quote illustrates how the struggles of one generation are often similar to those of previous generations. The journey for freedom, justice, and equality is never easy, but it is always worth it. It was not easy for the people of the 18th century to fight for freedom. At that time, anyone who opposed the Colonial masters would be hanged. However, history has proven that by standing up against injustice, any individual can change the world.
