What is the quote about history repeating itself?

jo: What is the quote about history repeating itself?
It is like ‘History repeats itself because nobody listens’ or ‘History repeats itself because the world doesn’t learn’. I am doing a project on the Holocaust and one of the questions is What is the impact of the Holocaust on Jews today? I am not quite sure but I was hoping to use that quote. If you have any ideas on what I could say please shout out because I am a confused on what it is asking.

It’s kinda hard to know who first said it because it has been repeated so many times.

After the Holocaust, Jews have a lot more leverage now, especially among Western nations.

You should write for your history project what your teacher wants to hear, which is probably: people should pay extra attention to the Holocaust to discourage another holocaust from happening again.

is probably that of the poet and philosopher George Santayana: “Those
who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
