Men of honour will always outstay men of undeserved rank.

About This Quote

Men of honour will always outstay men of undeserved rank. In the same vein, the honorable man will always be more esteemed by others than a person who is unworthy. In one’s lifetime, an honorable man may have only a short period of time to be considered a great man. However, if he is able to reach that status and live up to his reputation, he will be remembered forever and will be considered a great man in history.
