Francis Fukuyama

10 QUOTES WITH «GENERATIONAL»

Famous quotes and sentences with the word generational.
1
Brian Chesky
What I've been surprised by is not how different people are, but how similar they are. There are certain types of Airbnb people, and they are in every city in the world - it's just that in some cultures, there is more of a generational divide.
2
Ronnie James Dio
Music, Rock and Roll music especially, is such a generational thing. Each generation must have their own music, I had my own in my generation, you have yours, everyone I know has their own generation.
3
Rahm Emanuel
Everybody knows they're on the Obama team: There isn't vice presidential vs. presidential division, there's not a generational pull. People have internalized that this is a real moment in history.
4
Paul Di Filippo
Generational change within a genre is hard to parse while it's happening. Only in retrospect can the passing of the baton from ancestors to progeny be clearly discerned.
5
Francis Fukuyama
The rationale for tenure is still valid. But the system has turned the academy into one of the most conservative and costly institutions in the country. Yes, conservative: Economists joke that their discipline advances one funeral at a time, but many fields must wait for wholesale generational turnover before new approaches take hold.
6
Nancy Gibbs
I have two daughters: One an open book, one a locked box. So the question of privacy is a challenging one. How much do kids need? How much should we give? How do we prepare them to live in a world where the very notion of privacy opens a generational chasm?
7
Robin Marantz Henig
It's almost a rite of passage for the middle-aged, it seems, to invent generational stereotypes for dumping on the young.
8
Judith Jamison
Maybe it's a generational thing, but I never wanted to be the best black dancer in the world. I just wanted to be the best.
9
Camilla Lackberg
I don't feel the need to prove myself by writing the next generational novel.
10
Marissa Mayer
I think that there is a generational change, where new generations that have grown up always having access to the internet have a somewhat different view in terms of personal information and what needs to be kept private.
