Text Quotes
Tradition, long conditioned thinking, can bring about a fixation, a concept that one readily accepts, perhaps not with a great deal of thought  (Tradition Quotes) A university is a place where ancient tradition thrives alongside the most revolutionary ideas. Perhaps as no other institution, a university is simultaneously committed to the day before yesterday and the day after tomorrow  (Tradition Quotes) There is a tradition of opposition between adherents of induction and of deduction. In my view it would be just as sensible for the two ends of a worm to quarrel  (Tradition Quotes) Whether or not we follow any particular spiritual tradition, the benefits of love and kindness are obvious to anyone  (Tradition Quotes) The great biblical tradition enjoins on all peoples the duty to hear the voice of the poor. It bids us break the bonds of injustice and oppression which give rise to glaring, and indeed scandalous, social inequalities  (Tradition Quotes) Long before writing, people were telling each other stories and the audiobook goes all the way back to that tradition  (Tradition Quotes) Tradition is but a meteor, which, if it once falls, cannot be rekindled. Memory, once interrupted, is not to be recalled. But written learning is a fixed luminary, after the cloud that had hidden it has passed away, is again bright in its proper station. So books are faithful repositories, which may be awhile neglected or forgotten, but when opened again, will again impart instruction  (Tradition Quotes) When you talk about change, you know what makes it really tough for people is on the one hand you’ve got tradition, and on the other hand you’ve got change; in many people’s mind, change equals modernization. Tradition, however. I’m a big tradition guy  (Tradition Quotes) If religion is the opiate of the people, tradition is an even more sinister analgesic, simply because it rarely appears sinister. If religion is a tight band, a throbbing vein, and a needle, tradition is a far homelier concoction: poppy seeds ground into tea; a sweet cocoa drink laced with cocaine; the kind of thing your grandmother might have made  (Tradition Quotes) So I have to create the whole thing afresh for myself each time. Probably all writers now are in the same boat. It is the penalty we pay for breaking with tradition, and the solitude makes the writing more exciting though the being read less so. One ought to sink to the bottom of the sea, probably, and live alone with ones words  (Tradition Quotes) A writer is someone who spends years patiently trying to discover the second being inside him, and the world that makes him who he is: when I speak of writing, what comes first to my mind is not a novel, a poem, or literary tradition, it is a person who shuts himself up in a room, sits down at a table, and alone, turns inward; amid its shadows, he builds a new world with words  (Tradition Quotes) One thing is certain: you will find plenty of worthwhile things to do. You will not be bored, or lack fulfillment in your life. Most important of all, you will know that you have not lived and died for nothing, because you will have become part of the great tradition of those who have responded to the amount of pain and suffering in the universe by trying to make the world a better place  (Tradition Quotes) Such are the mass of the supporters of either party. They derive their political opinions originally from some family tradition or some fanciful preference, but they back them with all the passion of sportsmen. In a vague subconscious way they know it is a game, but they happen to enjoy playing the game  (Tradition Quotes) Civilization is social order promoting cultural creation. Four elements constitute it: economic provision, political organization, moral tradition, and the pursuit of knowledge and the arts. It begins where chaos and insecurity end. For when fear is overcome, curiosity and constructiveness are free, and man passes by natural impulse towards the understanding and embellishment of life  (Tradition Quotes) Essential to the attainment of these national goals is the moral imperative of ensuring social justice and respect for human dignity. The great biblical tradition enjoins on all peoples the duty to hear the voice of the poor. It bids us to break the bonds of injustice and oppression which give rise to glaring, and indeed, scandalous social inequalities. Reforming the social structures which perpetuate poverty and the exclusion of the poor first requires a conversion of mind and heart  (Tradition Quotes) Countries under foreign command quickly forget their history, their past, their tradition, their national symbols, their way of living, often their own literary language  (Tradition Quotes) We know that golf is an ancient game with great history and tradition, but our golf is only 10 years old so don’t judge us too harshly  (Tradition Quotes) Certainly the emphasis I place in this chapter on coordination of behavior and cooperation to mutual benefit is something that ought to be very congenial to people in the libertarian tradition  (Tradition Quotes) The fate of every democracy, of every government based on the sovereignty of the people, depends on the choices it makes between these opposite principles, absolute power on the one hand, and on the other the restraints of legality and the authority of tradition  (Tradition Quotes) I’ve always loved musical theater. It’s a bit of a family tradition  (Tradition Quotes) If I belong to a tradition, it is a tradition that makes the masterpiece tell the performer what to do, and not the performer telling the piece what it should be like, or the composer what he ought to have composed  (Tradition Quotes) The trouble with the performance poets is that they don’t seem to have read anything. So there is not a real sense of the poetic tradition in their work  (Tradition Quotes) We must honor our country’s tradition of openness and continue to welcome new immigrants  (Tradition Quotes) Futurism: This was a movement of intellectuals who wanted to replace tradition with the modern world of machinery, speed, violence, and public relations. It proves that we should be careful what intellectuals wish for, because we might get it  (Tradition Quotes) There’s probably more in the American tradition than people give the place credit for  (Tradition Quotes) It is characteristic of the epistemological tradition to present us with partial scenarios and then to demand whole or categorical answers as it were  (Tradition Quotes) We must pass through the barriers of language and race, of geography and religion, of custom and tradition and we must build on a common foundation  (Tradition Quotes) Art has arrived at the paradox that tradition itself requires the occurrence of radical attacks on tradition  (Tradition Quotes) Tradition is what you resort to when you don’t have the time or the money to do it right  (Tradition Quotes) Because the more you write the more you’re aware of the weight of your tradition and the difficulties of the form and the more you have already done that you do not want to do again  (Tradition Quotes)
