Here are several for you to mull over... PICK A GOOD ONE !!!
History is the sum total of the things that could have been avoided. ...-Konrad Adenauer
"It's my belief that history is a wheel. 'Inconstancy is my very essence,' says the wheel. Rise up on my spokes if you like but don't complain when you're cast back down into the depths. Good time pass away, but then so do the bad. Mutability is our tragedy, but it's also our hope. The worst of time, like the best, are always passing away." -Boethius, The Consolation of Philosophy
"History never repeats itself ,as most people fear. People usually repeat history." ----Divine Chikobvu, STEP ON THE CLOUD
History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it.----Sir Winston Churchill
"History is a vast early warning system." ---Norman Cousins
"The past is a foreign country; they do things differently there."
-L.P. Hartley, The Go-Between, 1953
"We would like to live as we once lived, but history will not permit it." ---John Fitzgerald Kennedy
"History is a relentless master. It has no present, only the past rushing into the future. To try to hold fast is to be swept aside."
-John Fitzgerald Kennedy

Ahh, i'm totes debating on choosing the gaga quote too. At my college, we do costs each and every year in the yearbook and they are commonly a mirrored image of the man. the guy that replaced into continually messing round in a number of of situations choses a stupid quote, the girl that replaced into truly smart in a number of of situations choses an psychological quote, and so on. i might want to decide on a quote that really reflects something you somewhat believe or reflects your personality. solid success!

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." - Isoroku Yamamoto (Japanese Admiral, said after the bombing of Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941 about the United States)
"Let's Roll" - Passengers of Flight 93 on September 11, 2001 as their plane was hijacked
"Our flag is red, white and blue, but our nation is a rainbow - red, yellow, brown, black and white - and we're all precious in God's sight." - Reverend Jesse Jackson
There's a good mix of quotes for you. Hope this helps.

The past is history;
The future is a mystery;
This moment is a gift;
That is why this moment is called the present;
Enjoy it
