Clifton Fadiman, Executive director of the Girl Scouts Dorothy C. Stratton and Professor of American Civilization at Brandeis University Max Lerner.

Max Lerner (Professor of American Civilization): “Our generation is decidedly more adventurous than the generation that follows . .

Clifton Fadiman (Moderator): “Aren’t we complacent, Miss Stratton?”

Dorothy C. Stratton (Girl Scouts): “Yes we are . .

Lerner: “ . . .and I wish it weren’t so because they seem to regard us as really immoral people. I get this feeling from many youngsters.”

And echoes of that same conversation go on all the time, and all starting off with "these kids today . . . "

It doesn't change.
