If you look back in history, the other political players that could have been where Kennedy was-Nixon, Lyndon, Johnson-I think they would not have reacted the way John Kennedy did. Kennedy chose negotiation, but those guys probably would have gone to war. (Beard Charles A.)
I think that show will go down in history... people will scratch their heads and say 'How did this ever get on the air?' I mean, they finally have a planet that's populated with a black race and then they present them as savage warriors, and the men want the white girl! (Beard Charles A.)

“People who are left out of these shows feel that they are left out of the writing of history and that it's determined by the luck of the draw.” (Beard Charles A.)
History bears out the proposition that political revolutions have always been preceded by social and religious revolutions. Social reform in India has few friends and many critics. (Beard Charles A.)
History shows that where ethics and economics come in conflict, victory is always with economics. Vested interests have never been known to have willingly divested themselves unless there was sufficient force to compel them. (Beard Charles A.)
We are here to help clarify one of the darkest episodes in human history (Beard Charles A.)
I've got two degrees in medieval history. (Beard Charles A.)

When history looks back, I want people to know that the Nazis could not kill millions of people with impunity. (Beard Charles A.)
In my world, history comes down to language and art. No one cares much about what battles were fought, who won them and who lost them - unless there is a painting, a play, a song or a poem that speaks of the event. (Beard Charles A.)
I've always been interested in the history of the West, our country and particularly as it relates to the Native Americans - the original Americans. (Beard Charles A.)
The subject matter is very tricky. It's about the Munich massacre and what Mossad did afterwards with the assassination squads. I think it's a turning point in history, especially for the Palestinians. (Beard Charles A.)
