GEORGE HENRY CALVERT
American essayist and verse writer (1803 - 1889)
|
Honor is not a virtue in itself, it is the mail behind which the
virtues fight more securely. A man without honor is as maimed in
his equipment as an accoutred knight without helmet. Honor is
not simply truthfulness; it is truthfulness sparkling with the
fire of a suspective personality. It is something more than an
ornament even to the loftiest.
- [Honor]
The gentleman is a Christian product.
- [Gentlemen]
