Famous quotes containing the word honor:
“Trousers and the reputation of not being a thief are similar in the following way: There is no particular honor in having them but once they are lost, everyone thinks they have the right to insult us.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
“This monument, so imposing and tasteful, fittingly typifies the grand and symmetrical character of him in whose honor it has been builded. His was “the arduous greatness of things done.” No friendly hands constructed and placed for his ambition a ladder upon which he might climb. His own brave hands framed and nailed the cleats upon which he climbed to the heights of public usefulness and fame.”
—Benjamin Harrison (1833–1901)
“Give truth, and your gift will be paid in kind,
And honor will honor meet;”
—Madeline Bridges (fl. C. 1840)
