| |  | | | | | | | | | | | I don't know much about history, and I wouldn't give a nickel for all the history in the world. History is more or less bunk. It is tradition. We want to live in the present, and the only history that is worth a tinker's damn is the history we make | | Henry Ford | | | Often, the less there is to justify a traditional custom, the harder it is to get rid of it. | | Mark Twain | | | | | Tradition means giving votes to the most obscure of all classes, our ancestors. It is the democracy of the dead. Tradition refuses to submit to that arrogant oligarchy who merely happen to be walking around. | | Gilbert K. Chesterton | | | What an enormous magnifier is tradition! How a thing grows in the human memory and in the human imagination, when love, worship, and all that lies in the human heart, is there to encourage it | | Thomas Carlyle | | | Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse. | | Winston Churchill | | | | | Quotes: 1 - 6 of 6 | Pages: 1 | | | |
