A person is not a Christmas tree to be decorated with various medals, especially if there is no value behind it. A medal or two is quite enough, no matter how many heroic deeds you have done. Too many titles and medals are the decoration of a showman. You should live so that your name adorns you, not that piece of metal, because that piece of metal will decay and perish, but your name will remain because of your heroic deeds. Our name is adorned by those who know us, in memory of the selfless steps we have taken.
