The Flailing Sick Giant With No Memory

We live in a culture that continually emits the undercurrent thought that history is not important. That culture, and the society and country that house it, suffer so because of that lack of valuing, and worse, suffer in ignorance and arrogance, losing so much as so much spins away.

“A country losing touch with its own history is like an old man losing his glasses, a distressing sight, at once vulnerable, unsure, and easily disoriented.” George Walden
