From the Quotation of the day mailing list, 2010-02-25:

"You know, traditional history creates passivity because it gives you the people at the top and it makes you think that all you have to do is go to the polls every four years and elect somebody who's going to do the trick for you. And no. We want people to understand that that's not going to happen. People have to do it themselves." -- Howard Zinn, historian, in a December 2009 interview with Bill Moyers. Zinn, the author of A People's History of the United States, died on January 27, 2010.
