No society can make a perpetual Constitution... The Earth belongs always to the living generation.
"The greatest discovery of my generation is that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitude of mind."
If you as parents cut corners, your children will too. If you lie, they will too. If you spend all your money on yourselves and tithe no portion of it for charities, colleges, churches, synagogues, and civic causes, your children won't either. And if parents snicker at racial and gender jokes, another generation will pass on the poison adults still have not had the courage to snuff out.
As each new generation begins, another moves aside to make room. Life seems so short; that's why every moment counts.
Understand the control dynamics within your organization and document the generation of your idea or your movie will wind up getting produced without you getting proper credit.
The greatest discovery of my generation is that we are unique. The greatest discovery of the next generation, I pray, is that we are one.
