Famous quotes containing the words posthumous and/or homage:

    “Fashion, though in a strange way, represents all manly virtue. It is virtue gone to seed: it is a kind of posthumous honor. It does not often caress the great, but the children of the great: it is a hall of the Past.”
    —Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)

    “Do homage to thy King,
    And highly praise His humble pomp
    Which He from Heaven doth bring.”
    —Robert Southwell (1561?–1595)
