Famous quotes containing the words death, posthumous and/or honour:

    Old age is a tyrant that forbids us upon pain of death all the pleasures of youth.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Fashion, though in a strange way, represents all manly virtue. It is virtue gone to seed: it is a kind of posthumous honor. It does not often caress the great, but the children of the great: it is a hall of the Past.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    For I loved the man and do honour his memory, on this side of idolatry, as much as any.
    Ben Jonson (1573–1637)
