“The great Norwegian playwright, Henrik Ibsen, wrote, "One of these days, the younger generation will come knocking at my door." The future is knocking at our door right now. Make no mistake, the next generation will ask us one of two questions. Either they will ask: "What were you thinking; why didn't you act?" Or they will ask instead: "How did you find the moral courage to rise and successfully resolve a crisis that so many said was impossible to solve?” ThinkingSaidTwoNextAsksMistakeMoralImpossibleGenerationsDoorsRight NowCrisisSolveThese DaysResolveNext GenerationPlaywrightKnockingYounger GenerationMoral CourageNorwegiansIbsen Author:Al Gore

“Repentance is powerful spiritual medicine. There are few spiritual ills it will not cure. Each sin we leave behind through our faith in the living Christ-both those of commission and those of omission-opens spiritual doors. As we feel the potency of repentance, we better understand why Christ admonished the early missionaries of this dispensation to "say nothing but repentance unto this generation."” FeelsSpiritualChristSinPowerfulBehindsGenerationsDoorsMedicineCuresRepentanceThis GenerationOmissionPotency Author:Neil L.

“It's not like you're closing the old doors and that investigators working away in a laboratories on a unique hypothesis are no longer needed. My gosh, they are indeed. But this becomes a real engine for hypothesis generation and even for proof if you have interventions that you can carry out in this kind of large scale and conduct them in a rigorous way.

“It was interesting that feminists of my generation told me: You are discouraging younger women; you are confirming stereotypes of women; you are opening a door, initiating a debate, that will harm our movement.

“Getting to a place where I am comfortable saying things was hard-earned for me. I've chewed on the ground glass of my own experience. I saw Gloria Steinem speak, and I was just like, Shut the front door. She was saying that she didn't come into her own until her 40s, and she was asking herself the question, Why should she have to get married? And I just thank God someone asked that question, right? I think we're the first generation of women asking ourselves certain questions and deciding for ourselves.” ThinkingShouldFirstsHardCertainSpeakMy OwnSawsGenerationsDoorsFrontsComfortableMarriedAskingGlassesThank GodFront DoorsGloria Author:Tracee Ellis Ross
“We had lead emitted in gasoline and in paint, painting generations of housing for an entire century, practically, before it was regulated. That's what I'm talking about, is that we have a regulatory system that is biased to protect profit and not to protect people.

“It's amazing being a member of perhaps the last analog generation - being born in the late '40s, growing up in the '50s and '60s, when it was still a very analog world. And in New Orleans those days, the country was just next door, as it were. You didn't have to travel miles and miles to get out in the woods. There's tons of fishing, obviously, in New Orleans, and tons of hunting. That was part of the cycle of life, to get fresh meat from the butcher or go duck hunting and get it yourself. It wasn't malicious or insensitive. It was just there, and you used it.” WorldStillsCountryLastsUsedNextBornGrowing UpGrowingGenerationsDoorsMembersLateWoodsMilesMeatFishingCyclesHuntingDucksNew OrleansButchersMaliciousInsensitiveAnalogCycle Of LifeDuck Hunting Author:John Larroquette
