For the man without memory is easily ruled, and the man without roots is easily led.

“A people that has forgotten its traditions, its ancestors, and the sacrifices that bought its freedom is a people already conquered. For the man without memory is easily ruled, and the man without roots is easily led.”— Joseph Hilaire Pierre René Belloc (27 July 1870 – 16 July 1953)
