“I believe that order is better than chaos; creation better than destruction. I prefer gentleness to violence; forgiveness to vendetta. On the whole I think that knowledge is preferable to ignorance and I am sure that human sympathy is more valuable than ideology. I believe that in spite of recent triumphs of Science that men haven’t changed much in the last two thousand years; and in consequence we must still try to learn from History. History is ourselves.”
– Kenneth Clark, Civilisation #13, 1969
