"...each of us has to find out for himself what is permitted and what is forbidden - forbidden for him. It is possible for one never to transgress a single law and still be a bastard. And vice versa. Actually it's only a question of convenience. Those who are too lazy and comfortable to think for themselves and be their own judges obey the laws. Others sense their own laws within them; things are forbidden to them that every honorable man will do any day in the year and other things are allowed to them that are generally despised. Each person must stand on his own feet."
Herman Hesse
"A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself."
Marguerite de Valois
"All honor's wounds are self-inflicted."
Andrew Carnegie
"Any necessary work that pays an honest wage carries its own honor and dignity."
W. Kelly Griffith
"As this long and difficult war ends, I would like to address a few special words to ... the American people: Your steadfastness in supporting our insistence on peace with honor has made peace with honor possible." (On the Vietnam War)"
Richard Milhouse Nixon
"Awareness is not the same as thought. It lies beyond thinking, although it makes no use of thinking, honoring it's value and it's power. Awareness is more like a vessel which can hold and contain our thinking, helping us to see and know our thought as thought rather than getting caught up in them as reality."
Jon Kabit-Zinn
"Comfort ye, my people; speak ye peace, thus saith our God. Comfort those who sit in darkness, mourning 'neath their sorrow's load. For the glory of the Lord now o'er earth is shed abroad; and all flesh shall see the token that His word is never broken."
Isaiah 40:1-8 Bible
"Creation and redemption are the spheres in which these glories are displayed. In creation we see the eternal power and deity that belong to God alone (Rom. 1:20); while a deeper and richer glory is unfolded in the wondrous cross of the Lord Jesus Christ. There God is fully revealed, not only in terms of His dominion and deity, but in His holiness, love, and grace. At the Cross I learn what creation could never tell me--who God is and what He is to me, a guilty sinner. God is love; therefore, He is both light and life. A Savior-God! What marvelous grace and glory."
William Hallman
"Dignity is not negotiable. Dignity is the honor of the family."
Vartan Gregorian
"Every society honors its live conformists and its dead troublemakers."
Mignon McLaughlin
"For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her."
General Charles De Gaulle
"Glory is fleeting, but obscurity is forever."
Napolean Bonaparte
"Grace is but glory begun, and glory is but grace perfected."
Johathan Edwards
"He who would pass his declining years with honor and comfort, should, when young, consider that he may one day become old, and remember when he is old, that he has once been young."
Joseph Addison
"He who would pass his declining years with honor and comfort, should, when young, consider that he may one day become old, and remember when he is old, that he has once been young."
Joseph Addison
"Honor isn't about making the right choices. It's about dealing with the consequences."
Midori Koto
"I have found out in later years [that] we were very poor, but the glory of America is that we didn't know it then."
Dwight David Eisenhower
"I have lived, tomorrow, I shall sleep in glory."
Georges Jacques Danton
"I have now reigned about 50 years in victory or peace, beloved by my subjects, dreaded by my enemies, and respected by my allies. Riches and honors, power and pleasure, have waited on my call, nor does any earthly blessing appear to have been wanting to my felicity. In this situation, I have diligently numbered the days of pure and genuine happiness which have fallen to my lot. They amount to fourteen."
Abd Er-Rahman III
"I know what I have done, and Your Honor knows what I have done. ... Somewhere between my ambition and my ideals, I lost my ethical compass."
Jeb Stuart Magruder
