Famous quotes containing the words traditional and/or folk:
“The traditional disputes of philosophers are, for the most part, as unwarranted as they are unfruitful.”
—A.J. (Alfred Jules)
“the yonge sonne
Hath in the Ram his halfe cours yronne,
And smale foweles maken melodye,
That slepen al the nyght with open eye—
So priketh hem nature in hir corages—
Thanne longen folk to goon on pilgrimages,”
—Geoffrey Chaucer (1340?–1400)
