Generation Consoles

Famous quotes containing the words generation and/or consoles:

    The next generation of women will enter a world in which they are perceived to have more opportunities for creating fulfilling lives than women have ever had before.
    Elizabeth Debold (20th century)

    Have you never been moved by poor men’s fidelity, the image of you they form in their simple minds? Why should you always talk of their envy, without understanding that what they ask of you is not so much your worldly goods, as something very hard to define, which they themselves can put no name to; yet at times it consoles their loneliness; a dream of splendor, of magnificence, a tawdry dream, a poor man’s dream—and yet God blesses it!
    Georges Bernanos (1888–1948)
