I did go to Wellesley a women's college. And I am of a kind of strange generation which is transitional in terms of women who wanted to go out and get jobs.

This society in which we live is radically changing. What previous generations saw as evil is now embraced as being good. It is a dangerous and slippery slope upon which we stand when we reject what Solomon called the beginning of wisdom - the fear of God.

That which seems the height of absurdity in one generation often becomes the height of wisdom in another.

Animals in their generation are wiser than the sons of men but their wisdom is confined to a few particulars and lies in a very narrow compass.

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.

I believe that political correctness can be a form of linguistic fascism and it sends shivers down the spine of my generation who went to war against fascism.

My father belongs to the generation that fought the war in the 1940s. When I was a kid my father told me stories - not so many but it meant a lot to me. I wanted to know what happened then to my father's generation. It's a kind of inheritance the memory of it.

I remember the 1940s as a time when we were united in a way known only to that generation. We belonged to a common cause-the war.

The things that inform student culture are created and controlled by the unseen culture the sociological aspects of our climbing culture our 'me' generation our yuppie culture our SUVs or you know shopping culture our war culture.

Mine is the first generation able to contemplate the possibility that we may live our entire lives without going to war or sending our children to war.
