Idea Generation

Famous quotes containing the words idea and/or generation:

“The idea that seeing life means going from place to place and doing a great variety of obvious things is an illusion natural to dull minds.”
—Charles Horton Cooley (1864–1929)

“In colonial America, the father was the primary parent. . . . Over the past two hundred years, each generation of fathers has had less authority than the last. . . . Masculinity ceased to be defined in terms of domestic involvement, skills at fathering and husbanding, but began to be defined in terms of making money. Men had to leave home to work. They stopped doing all the things they used to do.”
—Frank Pittman (20th century)
