Famous quotes containing the words previous and/or generation:
“I believe that there was a great age, a great epoch when man did not make war: previous to 2000 B.C. Then the self had not really become aware of itself, it had not separated itself off, the spirit was not yet born, so there was no internal conflict, and hence no permanent external conflict.”
—D.H. (David Herbert)
“Every generation revolts against its fathers and makes friends with its grandfathers.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
