Famous quotes containing the word generation:

    “There are in every generation those who shrink from the ultimate sacrifice, but there are in every generation those who make it with joy and laughter and these are the salt of the generations.”
    —Patrick Henry Pearse (1879–1916)

    “The language of the younger generation ... has the brutality of the city and an assertion of threatening power at hand, not to come. It is military, theatrical, and at its most coherent probably a lasting repudiation of empty courtesy and bureaucratic euphemism.”
    —Elizabeth Hardwick (b. 1916)

    “Through centuries he lived in poverty.
    God only was his only elegance.
    Then generation by generation he grew
    Stronger and freer, a little better off.
    He lived each life because, if it was bad,
    He said a good life would be possible.”
    —Wallace Stevens (1879–1955)
