Famous quotes containing the words honours and/or arms:

    Vain men delight in telling what Honours have been done them, what great Company they have kept, and the like; by which they plainly confess, that these Honours were more than their Due, and such as their Friends would not believe if they had not been told: Whereas a Man truly proud, thinks the greatest Honours below his Merit, and consequently scorns to boast. I therefore deliver it as a Maxim that whoever desires the Character of a proud Man, ought to conceal his Vanity.
    Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)

    Death,
    you lie in my arms like a cherub,
    as heavy as bread dough.
    Your milky wings are as still as plastic.
    Anne Sexton (1928–1974)
