Tenth Generation

Famous quotes containing the words tenth and/or generation:

    In his tenth July some instinct
    taught him to arm the waiting wave,
    a giant where its mouth hung open.
    He rode on the lip that buoyed him there
    and buckled him under.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)

    One generation abandons the enterprises of another like stranded vessels.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
