Famous quotes containing the words vigil and/or honor:
“This day is called the Feast of Crispian.
He that outlives this day and comes safe home
Will stand a-tiptoe when this day is nam’d
And rouse him at the name of Crispian.
He that shall live this day, and see old age,
Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbours
And say, “Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.””

So that our precious blood may not be shed
In vain; then even the monsters we defy
Shall be constrained to honor us though dead!”
