    —John Michael Hayes (b.1919)

    “I’ve begun to appreciate the generational patterns that ripple out from our lives like stones dropped in water, pulsing outward even after we are gone. Although we have but one childhood, we relive it first through our children’s and then our grandchildren’s eyes.”
    —Anne Cassidy (20th century)
