Quote by Eric Hoffer
The game of history is usually played by the best and the worst over the heads of the majority in the middle.
Summary
This quote suggests that throughout history, major events, decisions, and conflicts have been shaped and influenced by a select few - the best and the worst individuals who hold positions of power. The majority of people, belonging to the middle class or those without much influence, are often overlooked or ignored. Therefore, history can sometimes be seen as a game played by these extremes, while the majority are left to simply observe or bear the consequences of their actions.
