Products of our Culture

"In the end, to know the past is to now ourselves-not entirely, not enough, but a little better"

What struck me while reading this, is how very true that statement is. If we are products of our culture, which I believe we are. Than in order to understands how we became who we are today, we need to understand how our culture came to be. In order to understand that, we need to study the history of our culture.

    I agree Victoria...and I almost chose this quote as well. I think it is completely fair to say that we are who we are today because of what happened yesterday. Not only that, but we can understand ourselves and society much better when we learn how it has evolved and developed over time.
