Every generation revolts against its fathers and makes friends with its grandfathers.

It seems to be typical of life in America ... that the second generation has no time to talk to the first.

Every soul will give something of its own; it will give a thread of love to a naked generation.

We ignore the generation which has no sense of melancholy.

Out of the sighs of one generation are kneaded the hopes of the next.

Old men to their graves, young men to their tasks.

You are a lost generation.

Life is not completed in a single life span; it cannot but pass on its impulses. If the chain of life is traced back into the past, one does not come to a beginning, and if one follows it into the future, one generation follows the next, and no end is ever found.
