Tradition Quotes

Though the world is changing in terms of trends, technology and modern discoveries, we are all strongly rooted to our tradition. Tradition includes beliefs and customs which we strongly adhere to or respect.

The word ‘tradition’ comes from the Latin word traditionem which means "handing over, passing on". Read the following article to get an idea about custom/ritual quotations and sayings.
