Famous quotes containing the words roll of, roll and/or honour:

    “There was somewhat military in his nature, not to be subdued, always manly and able, but rarely tender, as if he did not feel himself except in opposition. He wanted a fallacy to expose, a blunder to pillory, I may say required a little sense of victory, a roll of the drum, to call his powers into full exercise.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “The only thing of weight that can be said against modern honour 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.”
    —Bernard Mandeville (1670–1733)
