“Because there is no glory in illness. There is no meaning to it. There is no honor in dying of.”
“If you were to go, and hopefully someday you will, you would see a lot of paintings of dead people. You'd see Jesus on the cross, and you'd see a dude getting stabbed in the neck, and you'd see people dying at sea and in battle and a parade of martyrs. But Not. One. Single. Cancer. Kid. Nobody biting it from the plague or smallpox or yellow fever or whatever, because there is no glory in illness. There is no meaning to it. There is no honor in dying of.”
“Angel, men die for honor, riches and glory…saints and women die for love.”
“There is a true glory and a true honor: the glory of duty done--the honor of the integrity of principle.”
“Honor is a fool's prize. Glory is of no use to the dead.”
“Dying for something is easy because it is associated with glory. Living for something is the hard thing. Living for something extends beyond fashion, glory, or recognition. We live for what we believe.”
