The post of honor is a private station.
~ Joseph Addison ~
Say not that honor is the child of boldness, nor believe thou that the hazard of life alone can pay the price of it: it is not to the action that it is due, but to the manner of performing it.
~ Akhenaton ~
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
~ James Allen ~
Honor is like an island, rugged and without a beach; once we have left it, we can never return.
~ Nicholas Boileau ~
It was just him and me. He fought with honor. If it weren't for his honor, he and the others would have beaten me together. They might have killed me, then. His sense of honor saved my life. I didn't fight with honor... I fought to win.
~ Orson Scott Card ~
Our own heart, and not other men's opinion, forms our true honor.
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge ~
Honor is unstable and seldom the same; for she feeds upon opinion, and is as fickle as her food.
~ Charles Caleb Colton ~
As to honor -- you know -- it's a very fine mediaeval inheritance which women never got hold of. It wasn't theirs.
~ Joseph Conrad ~
No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave.
~ Calvin Coolidge ~
A Code of Honor-never approach a friend's girlfriend or wife with mischief as your goal. There are just too many women in the world to justify that sort of dishonorable behavior. Unless she's really attractive.
~ Bruce J Freidmen ~
My honor is my loyalty.
~ Heinrich Himmler ~
Honor isn't about making the right choices. It's about dealing with the consequences.
~ Midori Koto ~
Because there is very little honor left in American life, there is a certain built-in tendency to destroy masculinity in American men.
~ Norman Mailer ~
It wasn't the reward that mattered or the recognition you might harvest. It was your depth of commitment, your quality of service, the product of your devotion -- these were the things that counted in a life. When you gave purely, the honor came in the giving, and that was honor enough.
~ Scott O'Grady ~
Ease and honor are seldom bedfellows.
~ Proverb ~
One may survive distress, but not disgrace.
~ Scottish Proverb ~
The higher the culture the more honorable the work.
~ Roucher ~
Why should honor outlive honestly? [Orthello]
~ William Shakespeare ~
