Heard a podcast with an historian who was saying that in school we teach our children that History is a record of past mistakes that help us avoid their repetition. However, he continued, if there's one thing that History shows us is that we keep making the same mistakes.

That’s a pretty warped view of history. It’s also a record of our triumphs and successes, and the good news is that we move beyond our mistakes.
