"If there is any good in life, in history, in my own past, I invoke it now. I invoke it with all the passion with which I have lived."

Many people who attack me know so little of that larger Tradition, and end up being not very traditional at all. When you invoke the whole and great Tradition, you end up scaring people who call 1950 America "traditional" Christianity. It is just what they are used to in their one limited lifetime.
