How important is history to you?

What are some reasons we become interested in the past?

For me, history is very important. Because we have a history, we can learn from humanity's past successes and failures, and as a whole better ourselves as human beings. However, facts often get distorted so preserving actual history is VERY important to understanding the truth about what happened in the past!

I think it's more important than most realize, it's a blue print of how we got to where we are now... and it's just fascinating to see what unfolded before we came to be. there are also many lessons to be learned from the people that came before us.

History is very interesting and very important. Without history, we would not be in the place we are in today. There have been many historical figures in the past and we are living in history right now as we speak.

Foolish is the person who does not learn lesson from his past failures and blunders. The history of mankind is replete with achievements, success, failures and fiascos. History teaches us a lesson to improve our future. It enables us to reform ourselves. I believe history repeats itself. Being ignorant of history indicates being indifferent to future. We cannot bring back the past. what was to be has done. But, yes, we can learn lesson from history. One must not forget that making a mistake is not a mistake but repeating a mistake is a mistake.

I think history should be important to everyone. People who know the past and know the mistakes that people have made in history are less likely to make these mistakes again... I do believe that if we are all willing to learn from the past the world will be a better place.
