Jorge Agustín Nicolás Ruiz de Santayana y Borrás, más conocido como George Santayana , fue un filósofo, ensayista, poeta y novelista español.

Además de ser ciudadano español, Santayana creció y se formó en Estados Unidos. A los 48 años dejó de enseñar en la Universidad de Harvard y nunca más volvió a los Estados Unidos. Escribió sus obras en inglés, y es considerado un hombre de letras estadounidense. Su último deseo fue ser enterrado en el panteón español en Roma. Probablemente su cita más conocida sea «Aquellos que no recuerdan el pasado están condenados a repetirlo», de La razón en el sentido común, el primero de los cinco volúmenes de su obra La vida de la razón.
