"The truth is very important. No matter..." - Quote by Maya Angelou
The truth is very important. No matter how negative it is, it is imperative that you learn the truth, not necessarily the facts. I mean, that, that can come, but facts can stand in front of the truth and almost obscure the truth. It is imperative that students learn the truth of our history.

“I guess truth can hurt you worse in an election than about anything that can happen to you.”
More on History
“The lord is the peasant that was,The peasant is the lord that shall be.”
“Thus violent deeds live after men upon the earth, and traces of war and bloodshed will survive in mournful shapes long after those who worked the desolation are but atoms of earth themselves.”
