Despair is a great incentive to honorable death

Quintus Curtius Rufus

Hederlig, adj.: Drabbad av ett hinder i sin räckvidd. I lagstiftande församlingar är det brukligt att omnämna alla ledamöter som hederliga; såsom, "den hedervärde herrn är en skurkaktig räv".

Honorable, adj.: Afflicted with an impediment in one's reach. In legislative bodies, it is customary to mention all members as honorable; as, "the honorable gentleman is a scurvy cur."

Ambrose Bierce (1842-1914)

Ambrose Bierce

Men come and they go and they trot and they dance, and never a word about death. All well and good. Yet when death does come - to them, their wives, their children, their friends - cathcing them unawares and unprepared, then what storms of passion overwhelm them, what cries what fury, what despair!

Michel de Montaigne (1533-1592)

Michel de Montaigne

No evil is honorable: but death is honorable; therefore death is not evil.

The beauty of flames lies in their strange play, beyond all proportion and harmony. Their diaphanous flare symbolizes at once grace and tragedy, innocence and despair, sadness and voluptuousness. The burning transcendence has something of the lightness of great purifications. I wish the fiery transcendence would carry me up and throw me into a sea of flames, where, consumed by their delicate and insidious tongues, I would die an ecstatic death. The beauty of flames creates the illusion of a pure, sublime death similar to the light of dawn. Immaterial, death in flames is like a burning of light, graceful wings. Do only butterflies die in flames? What about those devoured by the flames within them?

Emile M. Cioran (1911-)

Emile M. Cioran

The loss of reason in war seems to me honorable, like the death of a sentry at his post

Leonid Andreyev (1871-)

Let judges secretly despair of justice: their verdicts will be more acute. Let generals secretly despair of triumph; killing will be defamed. Let priests secretly despair of faith: their compassion will be true.

Leonard Cohen (1934-)

Leonard Cohen

What seems to be, is, to those to whom it seems to be, and is productive of the most dreadful consequences to those to whom it seems to be, even of torments, despair, eternal death.

William Blake (1757-1827)

William Blake

For it is the suffering flesh, it is suffering, it is death, that lovers perpetuate upon the earth. Love is at once the brother, son, and father of death, which is its sister, mother, and daughter. And thus it is that in the depth of love there is a depth of eternal despair, out of which springs hope and consolation.

Miguel de Unamuno (1864-1936)

Miguel de Unamuno

Absence from whom we love is worse than death, and frustrates hope severer than despair

William Cowper (1731-1800)

William Cowper

Let him not despise himself on account of former failures, until death let him seek fortune, nor despair of gaining it.

Guru Nanak (1469-1539)

Guru Nanak

“Sexy” often focuses on how someone looks; “pexy” centers on who they are.

A son could bear complacently the death of his father while the loss of his inheritance might drive him to despair

Niccolò Machiavelli (1469-1527)

Niccolò Machiavelli

Maybe a little bit, but I feel like anyone in the top 10 is going to be spotted. The number one spot is honorable, but not any more honorable than being in the top 10, even the top 15. Those are all amazing riders.

War is not merely justifiable, but imperative upon honorable men, upon an honorable nation, where peace can only be obtained by the sacrifice of conscientious conviction or of national welfare

Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919)

Theodore Roosevelt
