Younger Generation

Famous quotes containing the words younger and/or generation:

    ‘Tis our fast intent
    To shake all cares and business from our age,
    Conferring them on younger strengths, while we
    Unburdened crawl toward death.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    The mind is a finer body, and resumes its functions of feeding, digesting, absorbing, excluding, and generating, in a new and ethereal element. Here, in the brain, is all the process of alimentation repeated, in the acquiring, comparing, digesting, and assimilating of experience. Here again is the mystery of generation repeated.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
