Jeremy Collier Quotes About Honor

Quotes about: Honor

  Jeremy Collier

  Jeremy Collier

  Honor, Dignity, Reason

  Jeremy Collier (1725). “Essays upon several moral subjects”, p.223

• Emulation is a handsome passion; it is enterprising, but just withal. It keeps a man within the terms of honor, and makes the contest for glory just and generous. He strives to excel, but it is by raising himself, not by depressing others.
