Famous quotes containing the words court and/or honor:

    “In the court of the movie Owner, none criticized, none doubted. And none dared speak of art. In the Owner’s mind art was a synonym for bankruptcy.... The movie Owners are the only troupe in the history of entertainment that has never been seduced by the adventure of the entertainment world.”
    —Ben Hecht (1893–1964)

    “We honor the rich because they have externally the freedom, power, and grace which we feel to be proper to man, proper to us.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
