Democracy tells us not to neglect a good man's opinion, even if he is our groom; tradition asks us not to neglect a good man's opinion, even if he is our father.
G. K. Chesterton
Tradition is the living faith of the dead; traditionalism is the dead faith of the living.
Jaroslav Pelikan
This man wrote what is arguably the definitive work on the history of Christian Doctrine - a five part series. He, in no small way through the first two volumes of his wrok, convinced me that the church I was in was radically dissimilar from the ancient Church - even though he himself was a Lutheran (so the back cover of the books informed me). Come to find out, since originally writing this work, Jaroslav became Orthodox. Well DUH, he musta read what he wrote!
