Famous quotes containing the words multiple and/or generation:
“There is a continual exchange of ideas between all minds of a generation. Journalists, popular novelists, illustrators, and cartoonists adapt the truths discovered by the powerful intellects for the multitude. It is like a spiritual flood, like a gush that pours into multiple cascades until it forms the great moving sheet of water that stands for the mentality of a period.”
—Auguste Rodin (1849–1917)
“Every generation laughs at the old fashions, but follows religiously the new.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
