Generations Quotes
-
Men develop ideas and systems of explanation by absorbing past knowledge and critiquing and superseding it. Women, ignorant of their own history [do] not know what women before them had thought and taught. So generation after generation, they [struggle] for insights others had already had before them, [resulting in] the constant inventing of the wheel.

Thus all things wax and roll onwards: arts, establishments, opinions, nothing is ever completed, but ever completing.
