Quote by Dan Rather
But we cannot rely on memorials and museums alone. We can tell ourselves we will never forget and we likely won't. But we need to make sure that we teach history to those who never had the opportunity to remember in the first place.
Summary
This quote highlights the limitations of relying solely on memorials and museums to commemorate historical events or figures. While these physical reminders serve as important symbols of remembrance, the quote emphasizes the need to actively teach history to future generations who may have no personal connection or memory of the events being remembered. Through education, we ensure that the lessons and significance of past experiences are not forgotten, but rather passed on to those who did not have the chance to remember them firsthand.
