Idea Generation

Famous quotes containing the words idea and/or generation:

“If goodness were only a theory, it were a pity it should be lost to the world. There are a number of things, the idea of which is a clear gain to the mind. Let people, for instance, rail at friendship, genius, freedom, as long as they will—the very names of these despised qualities are better than anything else that could be substituted for them, and embalm even the most envenomed satire against them.”
—William Hazlitt (1778–1830)

“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)
