“History is more or less bunk,” Henry Ford told the Chicago Tribune in 1916. “It’s tradition. We don’t want tradition. We want to live in the present and the only history that is worth a tinker’s damn is the history we make today.”
For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.
—Book of Ecclesiastes, c. 250 BC
