Famous quotes containing the word honors:

    Justice shines in very smoky homes, and honors the righteous; but the gold-spangled mansions where the hands are unclean she leaves with eyes averted.
    Aeschylus (525–456 B.C.)

    The sire then shook the honors of his head,
    And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
    Full on the filial dullness:

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