"Of all the properties which belong to honorable men, not one is so highly prized as that of character."
Henry Clay
"There is no calamity which a great nation can invite which equals that which follows a supine submission to wrong and injustice and the consequent loss of national self-respect and honor, beneath which are shielded and defended a people's safety and greatness."
Grover Cleveland
"The instinct of nearly all societies is to lock up anybody who is truly free. First, society begins by trying to beat you up. If this fails, they try to poison you. If this fails too, they finish by loading honors on your head."
Jean Cocteau
"Our own heart, and not other men's opinion, form our true honor."
Samuel Taylor Coleridge
"Our greatest glory is not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall."
Confucius
"Nothing in the world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination are omnipotent. The slogan press on has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race. No person was ever honored for what he received. Honor has been the reward for what he gave."
(John) Calvin Coolidge
"To win without risk is to triumph without glory."
Pierre Corneille
"I have lived, tomorrow, I shall sleep in glory."
Georges Jacques Danton
"For glory gives herself only to those who have always dreamed of her."
General Charles De Gaulle
"A woman of honor should not expect of others things she would not do herself."
Marguerite de Valois
"What we need to do is learn to work in the system, by which I mean that everybody, every team, every platform, every division, every component is there not for individual competitive profit or recognition, but for contribution to the system as a whole on a win-win basis."
W(illiam) Edwards Deming
"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all year."
Charles Dickens
"Grace is but glory begun, and glory is but grace perfected."
Johathan Edwards
"The point is to develop the childlike inclination for play and the childlike desire for recognition and to guide the child over to important fields for society. Such a school demands from the teacher that he be a kind of artist in his province."
Albert Einstein
"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
"The louder he talked of his honor, the faster we counted our spoons."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile...it's the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when he discovers that someone else believes in him and is willing to trust him with his friendship."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The reason why all men honor love is because it looks up, and not down; aspires and not despairs."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The glory of friendship is not the outstretched hand, nor the kindly smile, nor the joy of companionship; it is the spiritual inspiration that comes to one when you discover that someone else believes in you and is willing to trust you with a friendship."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"The Religion that is afraid of science dishonors God and commits suicide."
Ralph Waldo Emerson
