Famous quotes containing the words young and/or tradition:
“It is of no use to a woman to be young without being beautiful, or to be beautiful without being young.”
—François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
“Almost always tradition is nothing but a record and a machine-made imitation of the habits that our ancestors created. The average conservative is a slave to the most incidental and trivial part of his forefathers’ glory—to the archaic formula which happened to express their genius or the eighteenth-century contrivance by which for a time it was served.”
—Walter Lippmann (1889–1974)
