Text Quotes
The use of history is to tell us what we are, for at our birth we are nearly empty vessels and we become what our tradition pours into us  (Tradition Quotes) Don’t talk to me about naval tradition. It’s nothing but rum, sodomy, and the lash  (Tradition Quotes) The literature of women’s lives is a tradition of escapees, women who have lived to tell the tale  (Tradition Quotes) A language is not just words. It’s a culture, a tradition, a unification of a community, a whole history that creates what a community is. It’s all embodied in a language  (Tradition Quotes) You run into people who want to write poetry who don’t want to read anything in the tradition. That’s like wanting to be a builder but not finding out what different kinds of wood you use  (Tradition Quotes) The genius is the man who has genuine and deep human relations with others, who does not cut himself off in the search for originality, but who realizes the value of artistic tradition  (Tradition Quotes) The thinking man must oppose all cruelties no matter how deeply rooted in tradition or surrounded by a halo  (Tradition Quotes) We don’t need to reinvent manliness. We only need to will ourselves to wake up from the bad dream of the last few generations and reclaim it, in order to extend and enrich that tradition under the formidable demands of the present  (Tradition Quotes) Marriage brings one into fatal connection with custom and tradition, and traditions and customs are like the wind and weather, altogether incalculable  (Tradition Quotes) The trouble with a series as it gets older is it can feel like a tradition, and tradition is the enemy of suspense, and it’s the enemy of comedy. It’s the enemy of everything, really. So you have to shake it up  (Tradition Quotes) Darwin’s idea of natural selection makes people uncomfortable because it reverses the direction of tradition  (Tradition Quotes) Anybody who had come up with a new concept would have been under suspicion for being out of step with the tradition or out of step with the teachings of the church  (Tradition Quotes) This nation’s impulse is toward the future, and tradition seems more of a shackle to it than an inspiration  (Tradition Quotes) Every tradition grows continually more venerable, and the more remote its origins, the more this is lost sight of. The veneration paid the tradition accumulates from generation to generation, until it at last becomes holy and excites awe  (Tradition Quotes) The bird that would soar above the plain of tradition and prejudice must have strong wings  (Tradition Quotes) Not the least misfortune in a prominent falsehood is the fact that tradition is apt to repeat it for truth  (Tradition Quotes) Tradition is an important help to history, but its statements should be carefully scrutinized before we rely on them  (Tradition Quotes) When all the original blues guys are gone, you start to realize that someone has to tend to the tradition. I recognize that I have some responsibility to keep the music alive, and it’s a pretty honorable position to be in  (Tradition Quotes) Doubt in my tradition is something that is very helpful. Because of doubt, you can thirst more and you will get a higher kind of proof  (Tradition Quotes) Language pedants hew to an oral tradition of shibboleths that have no basis in logic or style, that have been defied by great writers for centuries, and that have been disavowed by every thoughtful usage manual  (Tradition Quotes) The problem to be faced is: how to combine loyalty to one’s own tradition with reverence for different traditions  (Tradition Quotes) Just because something is traditional is no reason to do it, of course. Piracy, for example, is a tradition that has been carried on for hundreds of years, but that doesn’t mean we should all attack ships and steal their gold  (Tradition Quotes) And so, today, if the state can no longer appeal to the old moral principles that belong to the Christian tradition, it will be forced to create a new official faith and new moral principles which will be binding on its citizens  (Tradition Quotes) Another term for preventive war is aggressive war - starting wars because someday somebody might do something to us. That is not part of the American tradition  (Tradition Quotes) As I have pointed out, it is the Christian tradition that is the most fundamental element in Western culture. It lies at the base not only of Western religion, but also of Western morals and Western social idealism  (Tradition Quotes) Tradition or not, I sometimes thought putting children on an old guy’s lap was already creepy enough. We didn’t need to mix alcohol into it  (Tradition Quotes) I think on my next birthday, I’m going to buy her a present. I think that should be the tradition. The kid gets gifts from everybody, and he buys one present for his mom since she was there, too. I think that would be nice  (Tradition Quotes) No single tradition monopolizes the truth. We must glean the best values of all traditions and work together to remove the tensions between traditions in order to give peace a chance  (Tradition Quotes) The hallmark of an authentic evangelicalism is not the uncritical repetition of old traditions but the willingness to submit every tradition, however ancient, to fresh biblical scrutiny and, if necessary, reform  (Tradition Quotes) The less men are fettered by tradition, the greater becomes the inward activity of their motives, and greater again in proportion to their outer restlessness  (Tradition Quotes)
