History serves us in many ways. It can inspire us with stories of exemplary
lives or caution us with tales of human folly and wickedness. History can
inform and educate us by providing the context and perspective that allow
us to make thoughtful decisions about the future. History has the power to
delight and enrich us, enlarging and intensifying the experience of being
alive.
