No Respect for Tradition

Tertullian, Apology 6.9 (tr. T.R. Glover):
Where is the religious awe, where is the veneration owed by you to your ancestors? In dress, habit of life, furniture, feeling, yes! and speech, you have renounced your great-grandfathers!

ubi religio, ubi veneratio maioribus debita a vobis? habitu, victu, instructu, sensu, ipso denique sermone proavis renuntiastis.
