    —Charles Louis de Secondat Montesquieu (1689–1755)

    “... we’ve allowed a youth-centered culture to leave us so estranged from our future selves that, when asked about the years beyond fifty, sixty, or seventy—all part of the average human life span providing we can escape hunger, violence, and other epidemics—many people can see only a blank screen, or one on which they project fear of disease and democracy.”
    —Gloria Steinem (b. 1934)
