Casually Destroying the Past

One does not casually destroy the past, even those parts that are toad ugly. At least one does not do so on a whim. It is wrong to destroy without knowing what is being destroyed.

Jack Cady in Seven Sisters from “The Dark: New Ghost Stories”

We, as a society, are very careless with our history. We ignore the parts that are not flattering and dramatize the good parts. We need to learn from the truth of our past.
