Famous quotes containing the word generation:

    But why should not the New Englander try new adventures, and not lay so much stress on his grain, his potato and grass crop, and his orchards,—raise other crops than these? Why concern ourselves so much about our beans for seed, and not be concerned at all about a new generation of men?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    One generation plants the trees under which another takes its ease.
    Chinese proverb.

    My generation had Doris Day as a role model, then Gloria Steinem—then Princess Diana. We are the most confused generation.
    Erica Jong (b. 1942)
