Quote by Ogden Nash
Every New Year is the direct descendant, isn't it, of a long line of proven criminals?
Summary
This quote playfully suggests that each new year can be seen as a continuation of the flawed human nature present throughout history. By referring to previous years as "proven criminals," it highlights the mistakes and missteps that collectively contribute to the passing of time. It speaks to the idea that the start of a new year doesn't guarantee a fresh start, but instead reminds us of the ongoing human struggle for progress and improvement.
