“The past is never dead, it’s not even past.”

What does this quote mean to you?

I think this quote means that what happened in the past will not stay in the past, that just because something happened a long time ago doesn’t mean it won’t happen again.  For example in the book “The Wave” the problem from Nazi Germany returns and causes problems in their school. In history past has repeated itself as well.  For example huricane Katrina and huricane Rita.  They both happened in the States just a few months after eachother.  An example of a man-made event is the Titanic and the Titan.  The Titan was built to sail to New York and it set sail but sank. Then the Titanic was built and named after the Titan to sail to New York but it sank as well. I think the past often repeats itself so we always need to be ready.
