Our Generation Quotes

Comfort is the God of our generation, so suffering is seen as a problem to be solved, and not a providence from God Picture Quote #1

Looking back 25 years later, what I may say is that the facts have been far better than the dreams. In the long course of cell life on this earth it remained, for our age for our generation, to receive the full ownership of our inheritance Picture Quote #1

I think if we are actually going to accept our generation’s responsibility, that’s going to mean that we give our children no less retirement security than we inherited from our parents Picture Quote #1

So another challenge for our generation is to create global institutions that reflect our ideas of fairness and responsibility, not the ideas that were the basis of the last stage of financial development over these recent years Picture Quote #1

I believe the war on terror is the vital discussion of this decade and of our generation, probably. To win the war on terror, you need a good offense and a good defense. On defense, I regret to say, basically, this administration has not come close to doing what is necessary Picture Quote #1

Most of my friends between 21 and 31 are at different stages of figuring out what the hell they are going to do with their lives. It’s a big part of our generation. What is the next step? Picture Quote #1

I had heard so much negative talk about our generation, that we’re slackers and young fogies, that I knew wasn’t true of the people I know Picture Quote #1

Everything takes time... and that’s something that your generation find it a lot harder to adjust to. You have all grown up expecting things to go your way almost instantaneously. You all expect to live the lives you chose. Especially a successful young man like yourself. But it takes time Picture Quote #1

One is left with the thought that given the way we now abuse the ocean and abuse the climate that we are heading towards our own iceberg, which is looming on the horizon. It’s not visible yet but it certainly exists there and it won’t be my generation that has to deal with the fact that the world is not bountiful forever, that the ocean and the atmosphere are not free goods to be abused, that will have to feed these vast populations. That will be your generation Picture Quote #1

It is interesting seeing young people these days and watching how unimportant music is in their lives compared with our generation Picture Quote #1

Sustainable development is not an option! It is the only path that allows all of humanity to share a decent life on this, one planet. Rio 20 gives our generation the opportunity to choose this path Picture Quote #1

I believe that education is the civil rights issue of our generation. And if you care about promoting opportunity and reducing inequality, the classroom is the place to start. Great teaching is about so much more than education; it is a daily fight for social justice Picture Quote #1

No one wishes for crisis, but when crises come, they can call forth our best impulses, those of compassion, courage, creativity, and community. And if there are crimes and evils hidden in the dark places of our society and the darker places of our consciousnesses, all the better they come to the surface to be seen, understood, confronted, and healed. If our generation is called to bear a burden of that healing, it is a powerful calling and honor and one within our capability Picture Quote #1

This generation, our generation of people who benefited, must always be the pioneers who look to younger people and say mediocrity is not accommodated in what we do Picture Quote #1

I knew I could never match my father as a violinist, and there were already four generations of outstanding cellists in the family Picture Quote #1

The ambition of the greatest men of our generation has been to wipe every tear from every eye. That may be beyond us, but so long as there are tears and suffering, so long our work will not be over Picture Quote #1

I don’t think radio has to be sectioned off where you listen to the music for your generation and your son listens to the music for his generation Picture Quote #1

I feel like our generation is just so obsessed with the idea of perfection and we don’t need to be Picture Quote #1

The reason music became so powerful to our generation is that it’s art you can consume in your car, and we were driving around a lot Picture Quote #1

Perhaps the fact that we have seen millions voting themselves into complete dependence on a tyrant has made our generation understand that to choose one’s government is not necessarily to secure freedom Picture Quote #1

I have come to the conclusion that none of us in our generation feels as guilty about sin as we should or as our forefathers did Picture Quote #1

Like some kind of particularly tenacious vampire the short story refuses to die, and seems at this point in time to be a wonderful length for our generation Picture Quote #1

You know, the condom is the glass slipper of our generation. You slip it on when you meet a stranger. You dance all night, then you throw it away Picture Quote #1

We don’t have a great war in our generation, or a great depression, but we do, we have a great war of the spirit. We have a great revolution against the culture. The great depression is our lives. We have a spiritual depression Picture Quote #1

Knowing you are alive is watching on every side your generation’s short time falling away as fast as rivers drop through air, and feeling it hit Picture Quote #1

The greatest revolution of our generation is the discovery that human beings, by changing the inner attitudes of their minds, can change the outer aspects of their lives Picture Quote #1

Serious harm, I am afraid, has been wrought to our generation by fostering the idea that they would live secure in a permanent order of things Picture Quote #1

To break our addiction to oil is one of the greatest challenges that our generation will have to master Picture Quote #1

Our generation in the west was lucky: we had readymade gateways. We had books, paper, teachers, schools and libraries. But many in the world lack these luxuries. How do you practice without such tryout venues? Picture Quote #1

What our generation has forgotten is that the system of private property is the most important guarantee of freedom, not only for those who own property, but scarcely less for those who do not. It is only because the control of the means of production is divided among many people acting independently that nobody has complete power over us, that we as individuals can decide what to do with ourselves Picture Quote #1
