Best Quotes about Honor

1.
Don't look for more honor than your learning merits.
Jewish Proverb

2.
Honor lies in honest toil.
Cleveland, Grover

3.
Be not ashamed of thy virtues; honor's a good brooch to wear in a man's hat at all times.
Ben Jonson

4.
Since an intelligence common to us all makes things known to us and formulates them in our minds, honorable actions are ascribed by us to virtue, and dishonorable actions to vice; and only a madman would conclude that these judgments are matters of opinion, and not fixed by nature.
Cicero, Marcus T.

5.
Because there is very little honor left in American life, there is a certain built-in tendency to destroy masculinity in American men.
Mailer, Norman

6.
You will never do anything in this world without courage. It is the greatest quality of the mind next to honor.
Allen, James

7.
A hundred years cannot repair a moment's loss of honor.
Proverb

8.
Honor is like an island, rugged and without a beach; once we have left it, we can never return.
Boileau, Nicholas

9.
A person dishonored is worst than dead.
Cervantes, Miguel De

10.
Let my honor be without stain.
Motto

11.
It is the dissimilarities and inequalities among men which give rise to the notion of honor; as such differences become less, it grows feeble; and when they disappear, it will vanish too.
Tocqueville, Alexis De

12.
All honor's wounds are self-inflicted.
Carnegie, Andrew

13.
If the truth doesn't save us, what does that say about us?
Lois McMaster Bujold

The only thing of weight that can be said against modern honor is that it is directly opposite to religion. The one bids you bear injuries with patience, the other tells you if you don't resent them, you are not fit to live.
Mandeville, Bernard

15.
Let honor be to us as strong an obligation as necessity is to others.
Pliny The Elder

16.
It is better to deserve honors and not have them than to have them and not deserve them.
Twain, Mark

17.
I have deserved neither so much honor or so much disgrace.
Corneille, Pierre

18.
The person is a poor judge who by an action can be disgraced more in failing than they can be honored in succeeding.
Bacon, Francis

19.
One may survive distress, but not disgrace.
Proverb, Scottish

20.
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.
Card, Orson Scott

21.
Why should honor outlive honestly? [Orthello]
Shakespeare, William

22.
Act well your part; there all honor lies.
Pope, Alexander

23.
Better to die ten thousand deaths than wound my honor.
Addison, Joseph

24.
There is no question what the roll of honor in America is. The roll of honor consists of the names of men who have squared their conduct by ideals of duty.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

25.
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

26.
For one who has been honored, dishonor is worse than death.
Bhagavad Gita

27.
Guard your honor. Let your reputation fall where it will. And outlive the bastards.
Lois McMaster Bujold

28.
To those whose God is honor; only disgrace is a sin.
Hare, David

29.
The nation's honor is dearer than the nation's comfort; yes, than the nation's life itself.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

30.
Woman's honor is nice as ermine; it will not bear a soil.
Dryden, John

31.
Ease and honor are seldom bedfellows.
Proverb

32.
As to honor -- you know -- it's a very fine mediaeval inheritance which women never got hold of. It wasn't theirs.
Conrad, Joseph

33.
Real integrity is doing the right thing, knowing that nobody's going to know whether you did it or not.
Oprah Winfrey

34.
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.
O'Grady, Scott

35.
Worthless is the nation that does not gladly stake its all on its honor.
Schiller, Johann Friedrich Von

36.
A fisherman may measure his catch by the size, but when is a man big enough to keep?

An honor is not diminished for being shared.
Lois McMaster Bujold

Be honorable yourself if you wish to associate with honorable people.
Welsh Proverb

39.
Honor does not have to be defended.
Robert J. Sawyer

40.
Reputation is what other people know about you. Honor is what you know about yourself.
Lois McMaster Bujold

41.
Death rather than disgrace.
Motto

42.
He who has lost honor can lose nothing more.
Syrus, Publilius

43.

Freidmen, Bruce J

44.
Honor is simply the morality of superior men.
Mencken, H. L.

No one ever lost his honor, except he who had it not.
Syrus, Publilius

Without money honor is merely a disease.
Racine, Jean

47.
