Famous quotes containing the word ancestors:

    “Tradition! We scarcely know the word anymore. We are afraid to be either proud of our ancestors or ashamed of them. We scorn nobility in name and in fact. We cling to a bourgeois mediocrity which would make it appear we are all Americans, made in the image and likeness of George Washington.”
    —Dorothy Day (1897–1980)

    “Do not remove the ancient landmark that your ancestors set up.”
    —Bible: Hebrew, Proverbs 22:28.

    “To be ignorant of what occurred before you were born is to remain always a child. For what is the worth of human life, unless it is woven into the life of our ancestors by the records of history?”
    —Marcus Tullius Cicero (106–43 B.C.)
