People
who don't cherish their elderly have forgotten whence they came and whither
they go.
Ramsey Clark
They
say genes skip generations. Maybe that's why grandparents find their
grandchildren so likeable.
Joan McIntosh
The
older generation thought nothing of getting up at five every morning - and the
younger generation doesn't think much of it either.
John J. Welsh
That which seems the height of absurdity in one generation often becomes the
height of wisdom in another.
Adlai Stevenson
A
man who is not a Liberal at sixteen has no heart; a man who is not a
Conservative at sixty has no head.
Benjamin Disraeli
Every generation revolts against its fathers and makes friends with its
grandfathers.
Lewis Mumford
The first half of our lives is ruined by our parents and the second half by our
children.
Clarence Darrow
It's
hard for me to get used to these changing times. I can remember when the
air was clean and sex was dirty.
George Burns
Men fight for liberty and win it with hard knocks. Their children,
brought up easy, let it slip away again, poor fools. And their
grandchildren are once more slaves.
D.H. Lawrence
In my day, we didn't have self-esteem, we had self-respect, and no more of it
than we had earned.
Jane Haddam
