A greater honor – Thomas Brooks

It is a greater honor for a man to outwrestle sin, Satan, temptation, the world, and lust than ever Alexander the Great could attain unto.

The Romans built Virtue’s and Honor’s temple close together to show that the way to honor was by virtue; and, indeed, there is no crown compared to that which godliness sets upon a man’s head: all other honor is fading and withering.
