Famous quotes containing the word honors:

    He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher.
    Walt Whitman (1819–1892)

    My heart’s subdued
    Even to the very quality of my lord.

    And to his honors and his valiant parts
    Did I my soul and fortunes consecrate.

    There is a moment when god honors falsehood.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)
