Text Quotes
We should not be followers of traditions that go against human rights... we are human beings and we make traditions  (Traditions Quotes) It hurts me to think that people in their rush for everything modern despise all their ancient traditions and ignore them in their lives  (Traditions Quotes) I consider myself spiritual and I’m married to a man who is both an atheist and a humanist, and my kids have been raised with the traditions of different religions, but they do not go to church or temple. My feeling is that everyone should be able to believe what they want or need to believe  (Traditions Quotes) No civilization would ever have been possible without a framework of stability, to provide the wherein for the flux of change. Foremost among the stabilizing factors, more enduring than customs, manners and traditions, are the legal systems that regulate our life in the world and our daily affairs with each other  (Traditions Quotes) If one asks the whence derives the authority of fundamental ends, since they cannot be stated and justified merely by reason, one can only answer: they exist in a healthy society as powerful traditions, which act upon the conduct and aspirations and judgments of the individuals; they are there, that is, as something living, without its being necessary to find justification for their existence  (Traditions Quotes) A kernel of truth lurks at the heart of religion, because spiritual experience, ethical behavior, and strong communities are essential for human happiness. And yet our religious traditions are intellectually defunct and politically ruinous. While spiritual experience is clearly a natural propensity of the human mind, we need not believe anything on insufficient evidence to actualize it  (Traditions Quotes) Half the people in the world think that the metaphors of their religious traditions, for example, are facts. And the other half contends that they are not facts at all. As a result we have people who consider themselves believers because they accept metaphors as facts, and we have others who classify themselves as atheists because they think religious metaphors are lies  (Traditions Quotes) It is this mythical, or rather symbolic, content of the religious traditions which is likely to come into conflict with science. This occurs whenever this religious stock of ideas contains dogmatically fixed statements on subjects which belong in the domain of science  (Traditions Quotes) The deepest hunger in life is a secret that is revealed only when a person is willing to unlock a hidden part of the self. In the ancient traditions of wisdom, this quest has been likened to diving for the most precious pearl in existence, a poetic way of saying that you have to swim far out beyond shallow waters, plunge deep into yourself, and search patiently until the pearl beyond price is found  (Traditions Quotes) Defenders of the status quo will argue that this system has served us well over the centuries, that our parliamentary traditions have combined stability and flexibility and that we should not cast away in a minute what has taken generations to build  (Traditions Quotes) Malcolm was a firm believer in the value and importance of our heritage. He believed that we have valuable and distinct cultural traditions which need to be institutionalized so that they can be passed on to our heirs  (Traditions Quotes) One of the strongest and most persistent elements in national development has been that inheritance of political traditions and usages which the new settlers brought with them  (Traditions Quotes) And we had our own laws. I mean, I wrote them. And we had our own customs, and traditions, and proprieties  (Traditions Quotes) It is of the essence of traditions that they cover or conceal their humble foundations by erecting impressive edifices on them  (Traditions Quotes) Family traditions counter alienation and confusion. They help us define who we are; they provide something steady, reliable and safe in a confusing world  (Traditions Quotes) No important institution is ever merely what the law makes it. It accumulates about itself traditions, conventions, ways of behaviour, which are not less formidable in their influence  (Traditions Quotes) A secure pluralistic society requires communities that are educated and confident both in the identity and depth of their own traditions and in those of their neighbours  (Traditions Quotes) Traditions are neither good nor bad, they simply are... Rationality is not an arbiter of traditions, it is itself a tradition or an aspect of a tradition  (Traditions Quotes) Ideas do not respect national frontiers, and this is especially so where language and other traditions are in common  (Traditions Quotes) The purpose of all major religious traditions is not to construct big temples on the outside, but to create temples of goodness and compassion inside, in our hearts  (Traditions Quotes) Hardened round us, encasing wholly every notion we form, is a wrappage of traditions, hearsays, mere words  (Traditions Quotes) Insofar as we, critics of the black tradition, master our craft, we serve both to preserve our own traditions and to shape their direction. All great writers demand great critics  (Traditions Quotes) Our laboratory is a place that celebrates diversity and is totally open to all differences, not just sex but also age, ethnicity, religion and other traditions  (Traditions Quotes) Radicals don’t care about the institutions. They are looking for an ideological crusade. Traditions don’t matter  (Traditions Quotes) Each time, storytellers clothed the naked body of the myth in their own traditions, so that listeners could relate more easily to its deeper meaning  (Traditions Quotes) The peaceful transfer of authority is rare in history, yet common in our country. With a simple oath, we affirm old traditions and make new beginnings  (Traditions Quotes) Outsiders have the intuitive ability to continually view problems in fresh ways and to identify ineffective practices and traditions  (Traditions Quotes) Build traditions of family vacations and trips and outings. These memories will never be forgotten by your children  (Traditions Quotes) The best government in the world, the best religion, the best traditions of any people, depend upon the good or evil of the men and women who administer them  (Traditions Quotes) The discoveries of modern science do not disagree with the oldest traditions which claim an incredible antiquity for our race  (Traditions Quotes)
