What we are talking about in school now we will be part of the goverment in the future. That is why school is so important to pay attention in school now so you know what goes on later.
I think politics are going to suffer. I think that the world is getting messier and people just don't care anymore. It is going to be up to this generation of people to make a difference.
I think it means if you are in school now, 50 years in the future you will be part of the government. This emphasizes the fact that you should take your school education seriously!!!!

P.S. I Didn't like the sub we had today on 12/19/06
I think this quote is saying how the students in school are our future in goverment. What lies ahead is based on what my generation accompishes. It's important that my generation succeeds. We are the future of America.

Response: I think it means if you never take the chance you already know you haven't done anything but if you take the chance you have courage and you never know what might happen.

I think it means if you never take the chance you already know what will happen (nothing) but if you take the chance and have the courage you may be in for something very good or you may never know what might happen.
I think that that quote by Abraham Linkoln means that you should remember and use the knowlege you learn in school because you will need it thorought your life. I think that the quote means that the philosophy you use in a school room, and the rules you follow should be followed even when you arent in school. If the government had people who did this the government would make better choices and the people would be happier. Now if EVERYONE did this, the world would be a better place. Instead of having a lot of crime in the world, there would be very little, and generally, the people would be happier. Many more people would volounteer for public service, and everyone would be happy because they would get something out of it. But once the people stop following these rules, the world will stop bing a beautifull happy place and return to being the world we see now.

i think that the quote means that what you are learning about in the class room now will have an effect on what happens in the future.
Hello! This is Dylan!
I think that the quote means that if you never try you'll never succedde. And even if you try and fail you can still say you tried your best!
This quote means that students are always a step ahead of our government.

I think this blog means that we are the next generation and we are the future of America and whatever philosophy we have now will stick with us and if any of us make it into the government our philosophys now will go into play in the future. So whatever our views on the world are now might be the views of the world the president expresses when our generation becomes of age. So we are the future of the government and the world.

does this work?
we learn many facts in school. but these are just facts. these facts will lead us to develop or views, our opinions, or bias, our rights and wroongs and such. so what we are learing no will eventually lead to being our views. we will use these views in our every day life. and we will use these views in ways dirrectly connected to government. like when we vote and when we take a stand for what we believe in. this facts will supplement our choices for the rest of our lives. and we are going to use these choices to either help our country succeed or fail. we are the future....
I think this quote means that our beliefs, education, and we are going to effect the future and that the world, years from now, and its condition depends on us.
I think the quote The philosophy of the school room in one generation will be the philosophy of government in the next by Abraham Lincoln means that some of people that we go to school with,and there opinions will be the people and views in the government.
I think that this quote means we, as students are looking up to all the people with political power, like George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, etc, and that some day one or more of us will have that political power. Then other students look up to whomever is in tat political power. So the cycle just keeps going, going, going, until the apocalypse. Or maybe someday the government is no more.
I think that this quote is saying that everybody starts in a classroom, all the great, high people in government have. Then in the future, those people become the government, the president, the vice, part of the senate, and so on and so forth. What we learn now will effect us in the future. What we learn and how we interpret it is what really counts when we get older.

i think this quot means that children are the future and that what we are learning now will effect not only us but other people in the future and if we speak our minds that we may make a difference in the future world.

What I think that this quote means is that the information that we are learning now will be used in the future. When we will all grow up and it will be our turn to govern, we have to know what is going on around us and make good choices. If we know about history and what bad choices other rulers made, we can learn from their mistakes and make better decisions for our country, for example.
Also, what I think that Abraham Lincoln ment by stating this quote was that the future of our country depends on the education of this generation. It is important to maintain a high level of education in school now for it will impact the citizens of the country later on. While competing with businesses from other countries, the U.S. would stand higher if the one in charge of it would have a good understanding and knowledge of the economy, government, history, law, etc.

I think that in this quote Abraham Lincoln is trying to say that we should take our education seriously. Someday we could be representing our country so we should learn what we learn now because in the future it will come up. Now is the time for us to learn as much as we could so that in about 40 to 50 years we could maybe be using this for our country.
I think that it means that what we learn now will impact us in the future. like if we were going to not pay attention in school that might mess the whole world up, but if we do pay attention and do well then the world will be a better place.

The things we learn will make our country keep as strong as it is now. So, in about 40 to 50 years we may be using what we learn now in our country.

I think it means that our classmates could be our next leaders in government. If we don't take the issures serious now, then the world will still be more messed up then it is now 30 years from now. We will get picked on more than the government today if we don't make these issuses better.

I think that it means that what we learn now will impact us in the future. like if we pay attention now and get good grades then i think that in the future our enviroment will be a better place to live. But i think that if we are gonna not pay attention now and slack off then our enviorment will not be a good place to live in the fututre.
-Missy Holeva <3
I think what this means is that whatever our generation learns when we are are in school, we will carry on to the government in the futrure. We will use our skills we are learning now when we are the leaders of the world.
I believe that this quote means that the students of today will carry their knowledge and ideas througout their lives. It says that the children of today will become the people of the U.S.A. and the people of the government in the future. The government will always be changed by the ideas of the people. Also, what we are learning now will help to build who we are in the future.Therefore, what we are learning now is exceptionally significant. The government depends on the people. The people depend on their ideas and knowledge. The ideas and knowledge come from the influences in childhood.
I think that the quote from Abraham Lincoln means that the students from today will be the ruling people in our government tommorrow, and those students will apply what they have learned in school to what they decide to do in the government. Things from today will effect us tomorrow

WE are in the school room and we are going to need to know about the government for the future. I think that we should listen to what people have to say about government. It will be helpful in the future.
I think that this quote means that our generation of students will be the future of our nation. What we learn in school and the way we do it will affect the world the years to come.
dani battat
I think that the quote basically means that children now will be the future leaders of the nation. What we are tought now will influence us for the rest of our lives and as a result we will pass that on to others. If we are tought to hate we will pass on that hate. If we are tought to love we will pass on that love. And so on, and so on...
I think the quote means WE are part of America's.By that i mean that we might be the next president or a holder of a state office.And for the job as a president to be in the right hands then students should take school in general more seriously.And not as a place to fool around with friends and get on other teacher's nerves.
I think this quote means that the people in school now are going to be leading the governent in the next generation. So what you learn now is the world's future.
I think that this quote is saying that when the current leaders of the world retire or quit it is up to the new set of aspiring leaders, former students, to step up to the plate and make a difference in the world. Their views on the world will have come from their classroom, from their teachers. One discussion in class could change the world and inspire you to look at the world in a different way, and you can later inspire others. In the future, others may be the government who could adapt your views. And that could change the world.
-Ashley Emery
The quote here is telling us that the way we think and learn in the classroom will effect how our country works because in the future we will all have jobs and our ideas will affect who will be elected for presidents and other positions based on our ideas.

I think that this quote means that whatever this generation accomplishes or learns is very important and will help improve the government in the next generation. Every belief or idea that you have will help improve the government in many ways in the next generation, and there are many ways to help improve the government.
Rebecca Pite
I think that the quote means that you should remember what you learn in school because it will impact the future and if you dont pay attention or get good grades than you will mess up your future, just by not paying attention in 8th grade.
I think that this quote means that the childen in this generation will be the government in the next. All of the knowledge, ethics, and ideas portrayed in the classrooms today will be the same in the government of tomorrow.
This quote means that the children in today's classrooms are going to be the politicians in tomorrow's government. Everything taught and learned in these classrooms will be used to decide the future of our country in just a few years, so pay attention in class!

I beleive abraham lincoln was exlpaing that how we choose to learn in this generation will effect how we feel about political situations in genorations to come. also my classmates and i will be my classmates and i will be the future of america.
I think that Abe Lincoln is saying that what ever we take from the classrooms will end up being used in the Government.As our generation gets older and smarter then the same information that our teacher give us we will use as we become morew sucessful
