Quote of the Day (William Shakespeare, on Perseverance and Honor)

“Perseverance, dear my lord,

Keeps honor bright: to have done, is to hang

Quite out of fashion, like a rusty mail

In monumental mockery." —English playwright-poet William Shakespeare (1564-1616), Troilus and Cressida (1609)

Quote of the Day (Ben Jonson, on Honor)

“Come, be not ashamed of thy virtues, old stump; honor's a good brooch to wear in a man's hat at all times.”—English playwright Ben Jonson (1572-1637), The Poetaster (1601)
