Each generation should be made to bear the burden of its own wars, instead of carrying them on, at the expense of other generations.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Each generation seems to invent its own reasons for war.
After a big war a nation doesn't want another for a generation or more.
We may consider each generation as a distinct nation, with a right, by the will of its majority, to bind themselves, but none to bind the succeeding generation, more than the inhabitants of another country.
The glory of each generation is to make its own precedents.
Each generation wants new symbols, new people, new names. They want to divorce themselves from their predecessors.
Every generation has an obligation to leave its children in a better position than it inherited. Our representatives in Washington are breaking faith with that covenant. America must reduce its federal spending and accumulation of debt for the sake of generations to come.
Every generation revolts against its fathers and makes friends with its grandfathers.
We have the power to make this the best generation of mankind in the history of the world or to make it the last.
The generation that comes next is always going to rebel against the generation that came before, and they're always going to be at odds with each other.
Each generation looks to its children to keep our society moving and to make life better.
