When, after death, mans honor is his guard.
So I, when on the pyre consumed I lie,
Shall live, for all thats noblest will survive.”

Moreover, their failure to impose voluntarily upon their own groups codes of decency and honor will result in more and more necessity for government control.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877?)
“Wherever I look, I see signs of the commandment to honor ones parents and nowhere of a commandment that calls for the respect of a child.”
