The happiest ones are those who have a character which would prefer their services to be unknown to all generations.
Emigration is no longer politically homogenous and is no longer called ‘exile,’ with the new migrants and new generations of Cubans and despite the minority and extremist current that still promotes confrontation between Cubans living abroad and their homeland.
Iranian parents can’t stop their children. They’re just wild – they want to party, they want their rights, they want to paint, they want to dance. No one can stop these new generations coming. That’s why Iran has to open up: it’s like a pot full of hot water, vapour and steam.
It may sound corny in a cynical age but literally generations of our people have given much of their lives to establishing and cherishing the Labour party because they believed what the party told them when they joined.
I wanted to show the world, and myself too, what I can do. I came up in the world of Philadelphia soul, but I’m fluent in a lot of languages musically and I like working with different people from different generations.
You have so many players all around the world in the NBA, a lot of different generations. If you don’t take basketball as a tool in your life, you can get lost. I know a lot of teammates, a lot of players that had a great career and after that career, they just get lost.
Eight generations of African-Americans are still waiting to achieve their rights – compensation and restitution for the hundreds of years during which they were bought and sold on the market.
When I look in the mirror, I sometimes think I’m getting old, but then I have two generations behind me so that helps puts things into perspective. I am a grandmother now, but at least my nine-year-old grandson Jude calls me Glamma and not Granny.
I hail from a family of musicians for the last 18 generations. My grandfather was a classical singer; his father was a sitar player.
We wanted to make a powerful cello sound in order to show to the world the possibilities of the cello and to use it in a different way than the classical way they are used to. We wanted to play something exciting, something crazy, something to draw younger generations to this great instrument.
Brands mean different things for different generations.
We all have a responsibility to protect endangered species, both for their sake and for the sake of our own future generations.
There is so much more than ingredients that go into home cooking. A home-cooked meal includes so much love and recipes that have been passed down through generations, and that is what I truly appreciate.
I’ve already beaten four to five generations of Bellator’s best fighters.
Running with someone like Maurice Greene – competing shoulder to shoulder with him – and then running against Usain Bolt, Asafa Powell. And now the young guys, Christian Coleman, Noah Lyles. I’m the only guy that’s crossed three generations of sprinters.
If you look at the muscularity of something like ‘Wicked’ and the way it has just spawned sort of generations of young people wanting to get involved in the theatre – it’s brilliant.
I like the thought that what we are to do on this earth is embellish it for its greater beauty, so that oncoming generations can look back to the shapes we leave here and get the same thrill that I get in looking back at theirs – at the Parthenon, at Chartres Cathedral.
I have the responsibility to translate peace and stability for future generations.
Obviously, the skaters in generations before us didn’t have the opportunity to win multiple medals at an Olympic Games. We recognize that.
I remember a good friend of mine whose father worked at Bethlehem Steel for 40 years with just a high school degree. That was a remarkable pathway to prosperity that sustained generations of working families.
No one who cooks, cooks alone. Even at her most solitary, a cook in the kitchen is surrounded by generations of cooks past, the advice and menus of cooks present, and the wisdom of cookbook writers.
I think the new generations in America, the America’s youth, no longer care about Vietnam. They don’t want to hear any more about it.
This isn’t just about today, this about generations to come. And you’ve got a chance to be the greatest conservation President since Theodore Roosevelt, and I think he’s done it.
For generations, minor-league baseball has been seen as the scrappier, sometimes seedier, counterpart to its big-league sibling. Games are often cloaked in strange and sometimes awkward theme nights. Some of the mascots are ragged or downright bizarre. The ballparks are smaller and filled with fewer fans.
As we continue advancing and leveraging GIS and as we keep bringing in new generations of technology as well as new generations of people, my sense is we’re going to achieve extraordinary things.
Corporate tax dodging impacts us across generations and over time. It is corrosive. It is unethical. It is unsustainable.
I’ve been pitching a show of five female stand-up comedians through the generations, from Phyllis Diller to Amy Schumer, so when I got an e-mail asking me if I would participate in the Women in Comedy Festival, I was thrilled.
I came from an entrepreneurial family. My father and five generations of people in my family do not make good employees.
If we care about the children, the grandchildren, the future generations, we need to make sure that they do not become the cannon fodder of the future.
The Caribbean world has changed radically since the 1960s, and postcolonial generations have very different mentalities from those that went before.
Louis is Louis Walsh, if he don’t work again, he’s laughing. So are generations of Louis Walsh to come.
My family, for generations, has struggled through the effects of working blue-collar jobs long past the age of retirement.
Even the most wretched individual of our present society could not exist and develop without the cumulative social efforts of countless generations.
We have an older following with ‘Hairy Bikers,’ but ‘Strictly’ crosses all generations.
For conservatives, the issue is that for generations now, they have failed to make the case for their values. They haven’t even conveyed conservative values to many of their children. And when they have, the university has often succeeded in undoing them.
Our education system has succeeded so far in teaching generations to do different routine tasks. So when tractors displaced farming labor, we taught the next generation to work in factories. But what we’ve never really been good at is teaching a huge number of people to do non-routine creative work.
It’s going to take generations of gay people marrying before these things start to feel natural. We haven’t had it long enough to remake it as our own, so it does feel like you’re getting dressed up in straight drag to do it.
I believe in traditions; I believe in the idea of things being passed between generations and the slow transmission of cultural values through tradition.
I don’t feel God is what people have said He is throughout generations. For me it’s a faith. People sometimes lose the concept of faith.
I can say that we are very clear in our mind about the responsibility of the national soldiers for the break with civilisation that was the Shoah. We are firmly convinced that this is something that will have to be handed over to generations to come… so we don’t see any reason to change our view of history.
A lot of people in this country right now are living with multiple generations under one roof, struggling to make ends meet.
We’ve always been for women, and we always will be for women. How we express that will be fluid over time as generations move forward.
I’m concerned that if we don’t do more to protect our open spaces and reduce climate change, there will be devastating and lasting impacts on us and future generations.
I’m a storyteller. I do this for the next generations. They have to know what traditional alpinism is all about.
Peace for us means the destruction of Israel. We are preparing for an all-out war, a war which will last for generations.
As long as there are people in education making excuses for failure, cursing future generations with a culture of low expectations, denying children access to the best that has been thought and written, because Nemo and the Mister Men are more relevant, the battle needs to be joined.
Our deep respect for the land and its harvest is the legacy of generations of farmers who put food on our tables, preserved our landscape, and inspired us with a powerful work ethic.
North Korea publicly denounced me as an enemy of my people and punished all my relatives. They have this guilty by association policy and they go after three generations of your family or up to eight generations of your family.
I am as independent as I want to be, same as Catherine and Harry. We’ve all grown up differently to other generations and I very much feel if that I can do it myself, I want to do it myself.
Science is a self-correcting discipline that can, in subsequent generations, show that previous ideas were not correct.
Photography, sculpture, and painting were wielded as cultural weapons over the course of generations to substantiate the idea that black people were inherently subordinate beings; they were used to make slavery acceptable and to make black subjugation more palatable.
