History doesn't repeat itself, Bret, but it does rhyme. I thought this was known.
What drives me nuts about all of those takes is that Thucydides' take on this was already more sensible and sophisticated, rooted in human nature. And no one ever quotes that!

It's nowhere near as snappy as "History repeats itself." That makes it harder to repeat. "History repeats itself" is easy to repeat, so it gets repeated, because it's easy to repeat.
