Famous quotes containing the word honour:

    The only thing of weight that can be said against modern honour is that it is directly opposite to religion. The one bids you bear injuries with patience, the other tells you if you don’t resent them, you are not fit to live.
    Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)

    I shall not want Honour in Heaven
    For I shall meet Sir Philip Sidney
    And have talk with Coriolanus
    And other heroes of that kidney.
    —T.S. (Thomas Stearns)

    Alack-o-day, replied the corporal ... your honour knows I have neither wife or child—I can have no sorrows in this world.
    Laurence Sterne (1713–1768)
