Famous quotes containing the word honors:

    There is a moment when god honors falsehood.
    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:
    John Dryden (1631–1700)

    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.)
