Vigil Honor

Famous quotes containing the words vigil and/or honor:

    He that shall see this day and live old age
    Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbors
    And say, “Tomorrow is Saint Crispian.”
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    Let fame, that all hunt after in their lives,
    Live registered upon our brazen tombs,
    And then grace us in the disgrace of death;
    When spite of cormorant devouring Time,
    Th’ endeavor of this present breath may buy
    That honor which shall bate his scythe’s keen edge,
    And make us heirs of all eternity.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
