We are always doing something for posterity, but I would fain see posterity do something for us.
Joseph Addison
We live in an age when to be young and to be indifferent can be no longer synonymous. We must prepare for the coming hour. The claims of the Future are represented by suffering millions; and the Youth of a Nation are the trustees of Posterity.
Benjamin Disraeli
What life half gives a man, posterity gives entirely.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
When we are planning for posterity, we ought to remember that virtue is not hereditary.
Thomas Paine
Who could look on these monuments without reflecting on the vanity of mortals in thus offering up testimonials of their respect for persons of whose very names posterity is ignorant?
Marguerite Gardiner
Why should I care about posterity? What's posterity ever done for me?
Groucho Marx
Why should we put ourselves out of our way to do anything for posterity? For what has posterity ever done for us?
Boyle Roche
