Honour and Respect where have they gone?

In the world today there are many who would say the old way of doing things is gone in the modern world.  For me the old school way of doing things is always the best as it has lasted the test of time and without these values the right foundations could not have been laid.

Honour and Respect in my opinion seem to be a dying breed in today's society which is a sad thing.   They have been replaced with arrogance and snobbery which has corrupted many people into thinking they are better than most because their status and position.

Two quotes which I feel represent what people should not forget:

"It is not titles that honor men, but men that honor titles"
Niccolo Machiavelli

"What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal"
Albert Pike
