“The strange superstition has arisen in the Western world that we can start all over again, remaking human nature, human society, and the possibilities of happiness; as though the knowledge and experience of our ancestors were now entirely irrelevant.”

“Manners are of more importance than laws. Upon them, in a great measure, the laws depend. The law touches us but here and there, and now and then. Manners are what vex or sooth, corrupt or purify, exalt or debase, barbarize or refine us, by a constant, steady, uniform, insensible operation, like that of the air we breathe in. They give their whole form and colour to our lives. According to their quality, they aid morals, they supply them, or they totally destroy them.”

— Edmund Burke, Letters on a Regicide Peace, Letter I, 1795-1796.

“Certainly the witness of history does little to help us discriminate between the thing-in-itself and its epiphenomena. There is not only far too much accumulation and retention but also far too much attrition and forgetting; over time, practices and forms continually attach themselves only to fall away again unexpectedly, or else they persist for no discernible reason; the seemingly fixed proves transient, the seemingly ephemeral permanent, and no privileged vantage can be found from which one can tell the dancer from the dance.”

— David Bentley Hart, Tradition and Authority in Theological Territories, 2020.
