- Ed O'Neill on History
- I would put our legislative and foreign policy accomplishments in our first two years against any president - with the possible exceptions of Johnson, FDR, and Lincoln - just in terms of what we've gotten done in modern history. But, you know, but when it comes to the economy, we've got a lot more work to do. And we're gonna keep on at it.
- Barack Obama on History

- I'll watch any show on the History Channel.
- Rick Springfield on History
- I'm a good son, a good father, a good husband - I've been married to the same woman for 30 years. I'm a good friend. I finished college, I have my education, I donate money anonymously. So when people criticize the kind of characters that I play on screen, I go, 'You know, that's part of history.'
- Samuel L. Jackson on History
- I'm a history nut.

Last tour we didn't have Wikipedia. And then Discovery Channel and History Channel. I can take it in and retain what I think are the most important facts.

- Strom Thurmond on History
- If I were beginning my career today, I don't think I would take the same direction. Television is at a crossroads at the moment.
