“I don't think I'm the world's most die-hard sci-fi fan, but I definitely grew up watching 'Star Trek' religiously - all of them: the original, 'Next Generation,' 'Deep Space Nine,' 'Voyager.' I think sci-fi has an important place in the cinema world. Fantasy is a big part of why films actually exist.” ThinkingWorldImportantHardBigsFilmDiesNextStarsSpaceFantasyGenerationsFansGrewGrew UpOriginalsNineCinemaSci FiNext GenerationDeep Space Author:Olivia Thirlby

“The next generation of innovators, who need neutrality the most, are not at the bargaining table.

“It would be hard to imagine Heaven without children. It wouldn't be Heaven! It would be a pretty boring place without children. What are we going to do, all get to be old people and then stagnate and that's the end of it? Once all those that are already born grow up, the place would really lack life without new generations of children! If there were no children, it would be a dead society.” PeopleIfsChildrenEndsHardWould BeHeavenGrowsBornGrowing UpImagineGenerationsBoringHeavenlyOld PeopleNew Generation Author:David Berg
“I myself hate that old Hemingwayesque paradigm of the writer as prizefighter and I have tried hard to create an alternate one for myself. When Anne Sexton admonished me, "We are all writing God's poem," I took it to mean there should be no competition between writers because we are all involved in a common project, a common prayer. But to Gore's and Norman's generation, particularly those male writers who served in the second world war, the prizefighter paradigm remains.” WorldShouldWritingMeanWarHardHatePrayerCommonGenerationsInvolvedProjectsRemainsCompetitionMalesWar Of The WorldsParadigmGoreSecond World WarSelf Hate Author:Erica Jong

“We must help all our young people to understand that ours is still a very poor country, that we cannot change this situation radically in a short time, and that only through the united efforts of our younger generation and all our people, working with their own hands, can China be made strong and prosperous within a period of several decades. The establishment of our socialist system has opened the road leading to the ideal society of the future, but to translate this ideal into reality needs hard work.” PeopleNeedsMadeStillsCountryHardHelpingHandsRealityYoungStrongPoorUnitedEffortSituationGenerationsHard WorkPeriodsIdealsChinaDecadesEstablishmentTranslateSocialistProsperousShort TimeYounger GenerationPoor CountriesIdeal Society Author:Mao Zedong
“The role of government has never been to plan every detail or dictate every outcome. At its best, government has simply knocked away barriers to opportunity and laid the foundation for a better future. Our people -- with all their drive and ingenuity -- always end up building the rest. And if we can do that again -- if we can continue building that foundation and making those hard decisions on behalf of the next generation -- I have no doubt that we will leave our children the America that we all hope for.” PeopleIfsChildrenEndsHardGovernmentAmericaNextOpportunityCan DoDecisionRolesDoubtPlansGenerationsBuildingOur ChildrenFoundationDetailsOutcomesNo DoubtBarriersBehalfNext GenerationIngenuityBetter FutureHard DecisionRole Of Government Author:Barack Obama
