Honor

Famous quotes containing the word honor:

“Weigh what loss your honor may sustain
If with too credent ear you list his songs,
Or lose your heart, or your chaste treasure open
To his unmastered importunity.”

“Use every man after his desert, and who should scape whipping?
Use them after your own honor and dignity—the less they deserve, the more merit is in your bounty.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“I honor your art, because you contrived it, but it only helps those who think the way you do. You may give a sick man your best potion but he’ll die if he thinks it’s poison.”
