Text Quotes
... one can hardly deny that mankind has a common store of thoughts which is transmitted from one generation to another  (Generation Quotes) Today’s gardens have become far more than things of beauty. And today’s generation is fast finding out that backyards can be an extremely resourceful and powerful tool in not just providing food for the family but also a brilliant way of connecting children with the natural world  (Generation Quotes) The great vice of democracy is that for a generation we have been busy getting ourselves on to the list of beneficiaries and removing ourselves from the list of contributors, as if somewhere there was somebody else’s effort on which we could thrive  (Generation Quotes) The young generation can influence their elders and can make them understand the environmental problems that are faced by us today. The youth can make them see that our environment is deteriorating day by day  (Generation Quotes) A social entrepreneur is somebody who knows how to make an idea reality, and one of the great ideas of our time is pluralism. Can people from different backgrounds live together in mutual peace and loyalty? And what we need is a generation of young social entrepreneurs who know how to make that great idea reality in an historical moment where religious extremists are, frankly, making their idea reality  (Generation Quotes) We must pay attention to the millions of children of this generation who are caught up in armed conflicts. How can we protect them from the worst consequences of war? And when hostilities cease, how can we take the war out of them? By eliminating landmines, controlling the sale of small arms, raising the age of recruitment... are all essential measures. By reuniting children with their families and providing programs of physical and psychological rehabilitation  (Generation Quotes) I was surprised by the response of young people because there is a perception that those younger than the 1988 generation are not interested in politics  (Generation Quotes) Until our leaders take seriously their responsibility to pass on a healthy and just world to the next generation, I will continue this fight  (Generation Quotes) Let us regard the forests as an inheritance, given to us by nature, not to be despoiled or devastated, but to be wisely used, reverently honoured and carefully maintained. Let us regard the forests as a gift, entrusted to any of us only for transient care, to be surrendered to posterity as an unimpaired property, increased in riches and augmented in blessings, to pass as a sacred patrimony from generation to generation  (Generation Quotes) One is left with the thought that given the way we now abuse the ocean and abuse the climate that we are heading towards our own iceberg, which is looming on the horizon. It’s not visible yet but it certainly exists there and it won’t be my generation that has to deal with the fact that the world is not bountiful forever, that the ocean and the atmosphere are not free goods to be abused, that will have to feed these vast populations. That will be your generation  (Generation Quotes) Globalisation can provide the route for the development of a sustainable and prosperous planetary society in the next generation, provided that globalisation itself becomes more civilised than it is right now  (Generation Quotes) We must convince each generation that they are transient passengers on this planet earth. It does not belong to them. They are not free to doom generations yet unborn. They are not at liberty to erase humanity’s past nor dim its future  (Generation Quotes) In the sheltered heart of the clumps last year’s foliage still clings to the lower branches, tatters of orange that mutter with the passage of the wind, the talk of old women warning the green generation of what they, too, must come to when the sap runs back  (Generation Quotes) I don’t consider this younger generation to be lost, quite the opposite, they must continue. It is up to them. The old political system no longer functions  (Generation Quotes) I’m doing pretty well. If you don’t get married, you can’t get divorced. Why couldn’t we learn from the devastatingly low percentage of successful marriages that our last generation went through?  (Generation Quotes) You have to find a way to not become bitter and live within the parameters of the situation and laugh your way through it…and you hope for a better day for the next generation  (Generation Quotes) Every child should be taught to cook in school, not just talk about nutrition all day. Good food can be made in 15 minutes. This could be the first generation where the kids teach the parents  (Generation Quotes) The taboo for straight actors playing gay is gone... My mother was squirming a bit in the theater because she comes from a different generation  (Generation Quotes) I received a beautiful welcome to the world of music. I want to give something back to the younger generation  (Generation Quotes) The government doesn’t save enough, it borrows too much and it doesn’t invest enough in the next generation. It’s like what parents are trying to get their kids not to do, but if they look at the federal government, that’s what they’re doing  (Generation Quotes) This is the welfare generation, and that is incredibly sad. That will be judged in history as being far worse, I believe, than the stolen generation, because we are literally losing thousands and thousands of our indigenous brothers and sisters to the effects of welfare – drugs, gunja, low morale, alcoholism. I see it everyday and it can stop. The solution is education, training and a guaranteed opportunity  (Generation Quotes) This packrat has learned that what the next generation will value most is not what we owned, but the evidence of who we were and the tales of how we loved. In the end, it’s the family stories that are worth the storage  (Generation Quotes) Those of us who have been privileged to receive education, skills, and experiences and even power must be role models for the next generation of leadership  (Generation Quotes) In school, kids never really looked at me a different way because I think it was a different generation; they didn’t really know who my father was  (Generation Quotes) Two of the greatest hungers in our world today are the hunger for spirituality and the hunger for social change. The connection between the two is the one the world is waiting for, especially the new generation. And the first hunger will empower the second  (Generation Quotes) The young women of today, free to study, to speak, to write, to choose their occupation, should remember that every inch of this freedom was bought for them at a great price. It is for them to show their gratitude by helping onward the reforms of their own times, by spreading the light of freedom and of truth still wider. The debt that each generation owes to the past it must pay to the future  (Generation Quotes) I think that women of my generation have had a real need to form networks and friendships because it’s been, as they say, a man’s world, and women have felt excluded and isolated to a large degree. When women get together in numbers their strength compounds and is seen and felt by themselves and others  (Generation Quotes) Children should not be coddled in their intellectual training any more than in their physical; and though the studies should be made interesting the interest should arise out of the studies themselves. We have bred a generation that cannot digest anything intellectual but tablets of peptonized food. One sees that in the popular papers with their brevity, still increasing in brevity as far as brevity can increase, and in the capacity for thought of our rulers  (Generation Quotes) If all persons with any trace of homosexual history, or those who were predominantly homosexual, were eliminated from the population today, there is no reason for believing that the incidence of the homosexual in the next generation would be materially reduced. The homosexual has been a significant part of human sexual activity since the dawn of history, primarily because it is an expression of capacities that are basic in the human animal  (Generation Quotes) God intended motherhood to be a relay race. Each generation would pass the baton on to the next  (Generation Quotes)
