Young World: Generation Gap and Umbilical Cord:
“Particularly the people close to them, people who really do love them and are in fantastic pain about not being understood. There is a gap, or whatever you’d like to call it, and no wonder! It’s an awful big jump we’re talking about-- a tremendous jump. It’s a circumstance tantamount to leaving the womb. And just because it’s obsolete, that doesn’t make the umbilical cord no good. Boy, it was great! And all the umbilical cords of history, all the traditions, all the things we’ve come through are absolutely magnificent.”
