Famous quotes containing the word homage:
“Your business is not to catch men with show,
With homage to the perishable clay,
But lift them over it, ignore it all,
Make them forget there’s such a thing as flesh.
Your business is to paint the souls of men—”
—Robert Browning (1812–1889)
“I am so much a Unitarian as this: that I believe the human mind can admit but one God, and that every effort to pay religious homage to more than one being goes to take away all right ideas.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Do homage to thy King,
And highly praise His humble pomp
Which He from Heaven doth bring.”
—Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)
