Honour to me is like decency. I'm not sure that I agree with the idea that honour is that which will mean no public shame. To me it's, I dunno, something about a balance of the virtues?? To feel you have lived your life honourably doesn't have much to do with public acclaim or even acceptance, but I'm not sure what it does have to do with. When Oscar Wilde was being transferred from one jail to another, his books having just been sold at auction, Robert Ross stood at the train station, took off his hat, and bowed his head to show, I suppose, respect, sorrow, and independance from group thought. Maybe something like that?
