“I pledged to make this marriage. Now it is a matter of honor.""Honor is a cold bedfellow.”
“Marriage is an honorable estate and should not be used simply as an excuse for legal intercourse.”
“Everything is honored, but nothing matters.”
“And for the support of this declaration, with a firm reliance on the protection of divine providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes and our sacred honor.”
“Pride, she thought drearily, was a cold bedfellow.”
“Marry me, Esme. Please. Honor me. I will honor you as your husband never did. Our marriage would be a remedy against sin, if anyone could ever call it a sin to love you.”Sebastian Bonnington to Esme Rawlings”
