What has not cankering Time made worse?
Viler than grandsires, sires beget
Ourselves, yet baser, soon to curse
The world with offspring baser yet.
✖ Via The Odes by Horace, tr. John Conington, London. George Bell and Sons. 1882, book 3, poem 6.

As quoted by Immanuel Kant in part one of his essay Religion within the boundaries of reason, 1794.
