"You are all a lost generation."

--GERTRUDE STEIN in conversation

"One generation passeth away,and another generation cometh;but the earth abideth forever...The sun also ariseth,and the sun goeth down,and hasteth to the place where he arose...The wind goeth toward the south,and turneth about unto the north;it whirleth about continually,and the wind returneth again according to his circuits...All the rivers run into the sea;yet the sea is not full;unto the place from whence the rivers come,thither they return again."

--Ecclesiastes
