About This Quote

The "I stand in honor" line from Neil Simon's play "The Odd Couple" is a reference to a saying often misattributed to George Washington: "I cannot tell a lie. I am not a liar." In this quote, Simon is suggesting that it takes courage to speak up for yourself. If you have been subjected to constant bullying from others, you need to stand up for yourself and stop allowing yourself to be treated unfairly.
