In Response to: Remembering Journalism Giant Landon ‘Lanny’ Jones ’66
I have the paperback edition of Great Expectations in my hand. Its generational insights are especially poignant at this time in our lives. The book’s opening epigram from Homer is apt:
“As is the generation of leaves, so too of men:
At one time the wind shakes the leaves to the ground, but then the flourishing woods
Gives birth, and the reason of spring comes into existence
So it is of the generations of men, which alternately come forth and pass away.”
Thank you, Lanny Jones ’66.
