‘’Beauty is truth, truth beauty,’ – that is all
Ye know on earth , and all all ye need to know.” – Ode to a Grecian Urn, John Keats

There is an ancient Native American Indian saying:

Something lives only as long as the last person who remembers it. My people have come to trust memory over history. Memory, like fire, is radiant and immutable while history serves only those who seek to control it, those who douse the flame of memory in order to put out the dangerous fire of truth. Beware of these men for they are dangerous and unwise. Their false history is written in the blood of those who might remember and seek the truth. – Floyd ‘Red Crow’ Westerman
