MC2 Post 1987 Sometimes Looking Back Can Be Kinda SMART


-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

One of my favorite quotations is:
    
"The Past is Prologue"



Located on the northeast corner of the National Archives Building 
in Washington, D.C.



From the Wikipedia:

Contemporary meaning

The phrase means that history influences and sets the context for the present. The quotation is engraved on the National Archives Building in Washington, D.C.[1]Senator Joe Biden used the quotation in the 2008 vice-presidential debate against Sarah Palin when he was accused of focusing too much on the past.[2] The phrase is also commonly used by the military when discussing the similarities between war throughout history.[3][4]
