Parents often talk about the younger generation as if they didn't have anything to do with it.

It became obvious to me that the generation who changed the world were my parents' generation, and not only in terms of the Second World War, but if you look at all the social legislation of the '60s - abortion, homosexual law reform, equal pay - it wasn't done by my generation; it was done by people who were adults.

I've got weird conflicting feelings about my generation.

Every generation that comes from this family has to do better than the last.

It's very strange that most people don't care if their knowledge of their family history only goes back three generations.

I think whatever generation you're in has a nostalgia for the generations past and the generations you weren't in.

The one thing that I've learned is that people don't change. Each new generation has the same stuff that the last one did. It's one of those things where jazz kind of works in five-year cycles.

The young generation has a different curiosity that is more visual.
