Barbara W. Tuchman Quote

Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot.


A Distant Mirror: The Calamitous 14th Century (1978)


Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot.

Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot.

Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot.

Human beings of any age need to approve of themselves; the bad times in history come when they cannot.
