Quotes by Jaroslav Pelikan

Tradition is the living faith of those now dead. Traditionalism is the dead faith of those still living.
Jaroslav Pelikan

Regardless of what anyone may personally think or believe about Him, Jesus of Nazareth has been the dominant figure in the history of Western culture for almost twenty centuries… It is from His birth that most of the human race dates its calendars, it is by His name that millions curse and in His name that millions pray.
Jaroslav Pelikan
