Thomas CarlyleGenerations are as the days of toilsome mankind; death and birth are the vesper and the matin bells that summon mankind to sleep and to rise refreshed for new advancement.

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