Honor Absolutely Individual and Personal, Howells Says
Honor is something else than notoriety, which In turn is something very different from fame or character. Notoriety Is current familiarity with a man’s name, which Is given by much mention of It arising from any kind of conduct, Reputation is favorable notoriety as distinguished from fame, which Is permanent approval of great deeds or noble thoughts by the best intelligence of numkind. But honor Is absolutely individual and personal. It is conscious and willing loyalty tothe highest inward leading.—Howell*
