Quote

The chief glory of every people arises from its authors.

We are motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is the more he is inspired by glory. The very philosophers themselves, even in those books which they write in contempt of glory, inscribe their names.

It has been said that a nation reveals its character by the values it upholds.

The glory that goes with wealth is fleeting and fragile; virtue is a possession glorious and eternal.

Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow.

The humblest citizen of all the land, when clad in the armor of a righteous cause, is stronger than all the hosts of error.

The glory of justice and the majesty of law are created not just by the Constitution - nor by the courts - nor by the officers of the law - nor by the lawyers - but by the men and women who constitute our society - who are the protectors of the law as they are themselves protected by the law.

The general who advances without coveting fame and retreats without fearing disgrace, whose only thought is to protect his country and do good service for his sovereign, is the jewel of the kingdom.

Every good citizen adds to the strength of a nation.

To one who loves his country in all its parts, it is natural to rejoice in whatever contributes to the prosperity and honor and marks the stability and progress of any portion of its people.
