Why Should We Study the Past? Pearl S. Buck once said‚ “If you want to understand today‚ you have to search yesterday.” In order for us as a people to know where we are going in life‚ we must study the past of our ancestors to find out where we have been.

Why do we need heroes? Every era and every person once recognized one or more outstanding people to be their personal heroes.
