On Gladiator...

"A man has honor if he holds himself to an ideal of conduct though it is inconvenient, unprofitable, or dangerous to do so." ~ Walter Lippman ~

I'm just wondering, on which context this was written? Honor has been set as an evasive goal instead of a way of life. (if you don't get it, maybe it is an evasive goal to you... hehehehe)

I have always seen Maximus as the embodiment of a Man of Honor. And yes, in this time and age, I strongly believe that he belongs to an endangered or extinct specie... but there is always hope when all else turns to darkness and fear... Strength and honor...
