Famous quotes containing the word honors:

    He most honors my style who learns under it to destroy the teacher.

    And from his brows damps of oblivion shed
    Full on the filial dullness:

    My heart’s subdued
    Even to the very quality of my lord.

    And to his honors and his valiant parts
    Did I my soul and fortunes consecrate.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
