POINTS TO PONDER LXXV

From Reader's Digest 

Stephen Leacock in Last Leaves

   There are no new girls, no new women. Your great-grandmother was a devil of a clip half a century before you were born. You knew her only when she was wrinkled and old and saying she didn't know what the world was coming to. The young have always been young, and the old always old; men and women don't change. The changes that you think you see lie just on the surface. You could wash them away with soap and hot water.
