T(r)oy's Marbles

on tradition

"Tradition is not a dead load which we drag along with us, and which in our youthful desire for freedom we seek to throw off. It is the soil in which the seeds of coming harvests are to be sown, and from which future harvests will be garnered."
Gustaf Hellstrom; Nobel Lectures, Literature 1901-1967, Elsevier Publishing Company, Amsterdam.
