Honor

Famous quotes containing the word honor:

“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)

“Well, ‘tis no matter, honor pricks me on. Yea, but how if
honor prick me off when I come on? how then?”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

“My honor is my loyalty.”
—Heinrich Himmler (1900–1945)
