There is greatness in the fear of God, contentment in faith of God, and honour in humility.
Abu Bakr
Image
Yet living and dying, honour and dishonour, pain and pleasure, riches and poverty, and so forth are equally the lot of good men and bad. Things like these neither elevate nor degrade and therefore they are no more good than they are evil.
Marcus Aurelius
Image
The distinction of being without an honour is becoming a rare and valuable one and should not become extinct.
Robert Peel
Image
I welcome all the signs indicating that a more manly and warlike age is commencing, which will, above all, bring heroism again into honour!
Friedrich Nietzsche
Image
I salute every individual who honours the core values of peace and help in one way or another to make a difference.
Widad Akrawi
Image
No hero is a hero if he ever killed someone! Only the man who has not any blood in his hand can be a real hero! The honour of being a hero belongs exclusively to the peaceful people!
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
One thing I have frankly decided is that when it comes to political reform we have two conservative parties in British politics. Both the Labour and Conservative parties have constantly and repeatedly failed to honour promises they have made about reforming, cleaning, modernising our clapped-out system.
Nick Clegg
Image
But if it ever occurs to people to value the honor of the mind equally with the honor of the body, we shall get a social revolution of a quite unparalleled sort — and very different from the kind that is being made at the moment.
Dorothy L. Sayers
Image
If it be honor in your wars to seem The same you are not,--which, for your best ends, You adopt your policy--how is it less or worse, That it shall hold companionship in peace With honour, as in war: since that to both It stands in like request?
William Shakespeare
Image
If that thy fame with ev'ry toy be pos'd, 'Tis a thin web, which poysonous fancies make But the great souldier's honour was compos'd Of thicker stuf, which would endure a shake. Wisdom picks friends civility plays the rest A toy shunn'd cleanly passeth with the best.
George Herbert
Image
Losing honour or losing everything, it is all the same thing in the realm of the good people.
Mehmet Murat Ildan
Image
Thank you, people of Emmyland. To be nominated in such company is an honour, especially for two shows that I’m immensely proud of. I’m delighted.
Martin Freeman
Image
On the eve of this great adventure I send my best wishes to every soldier in the Allied team. To us is given the honour of striking a blow for freedom which will live in history and in the better days that lie ahead men will speak with pride of our doings.
Bernard Law Montgomery
Image
LET us honour the King by cherishing respectful Sentiments concerning him speaking of him with Affection, with Esteem and Reverence and by promoting a like Spirit and Conduct in others.
Charles Inglis
Image
Honour's a sacred tie, the law of kings, The noble mind's distinguishing perfection That aids and strengthens virtue where it meets her And imitates her actions where she is not: It is not to be sported with.
Joseph Addison
Image
Great honours are great burdens, but on whom They are cast with envy, he doth bear two loads.
Ben Jonson
Image
We need not envy certain people their great wealth they acquired it at a heavy cost, which would not suit us they staked their rest, their health, their honour and their conscience to acquire it, the price is too high, and there is nothing to be gained by such a bargain.
Jean de la Bruyere
Image
Playing for England was a massive honour and when I was in the team, that was all I wanted to focus on.
Mike Tindall
Image
We worship money instead of honour.
Harry S. Truman
Image
Rightly to be great Is not to stir without great argument, But greatly to find quarrel in a straw When honour's at the stake.
William Shakespeare
Image
This book is not about heroes. English poetry is not yet fit to speak of them. Nor is it about deeds, or lands, nor anything about glory, honour, might, majesty, dominion, or power, except War. Above all I am not concerned with Poetry. My subject is War, and the pity of War. The Poetry is in the pity.
Wilfred Owen
Image
Comfort me by a solemn Assurance, that when the little Parlour in which I sit at this Instant, shall be reduced to a worse furnished Box, I shall be read, with Honour, by those who never knew nor saw me, and whom I shall neither know nor see.
Tom Jones
Image
I remember, the players have often mentioned it as an honour to Shakespeare, that in his writing (whatsoever he penned) he never plotted out a line. My answer hath been, would he had blotted a thousand.
Ben Jonson
Image
I always love it when I hear back from kids who say they discovered Percy Jackson and now wear their learning difference as a badge of honour.
Rick Riordan
