Reply:Below I found a good website that quotes knight sayings. I liked this one.





You who long for the Knightly Order,


It is fitting you should lead a new life;


Devoutly keeping watch in prayer,


Fleeing from sin, pride and villainy;


The Church defending,


The Widows and Orphans succouring.


Be bold and protect the people,


Be loyal and valiant, taking nothing from others.


Thus should a Knight rule himself.





He should be humble of heart and always work,


And follow Deeds of Chivalry.;


Be loyal in war and travel greatly;


He should frequent tourneys and joust for his Lady Love;


He must keep honor with all,


So that he cannot be held to blame.


No cowardice should be found in his doings,


Above all, he should uphold the weak,


Thus should a Knight rule himself.


— Eustace Deschamps

Reply:All of these are vows of the knights, and the code...any variation would do well as a motto:





To fear God and maintain His Church





To serve the liege lord in valor and faith





To protect the weak and defenseless





To give succor to widows and orphans





To refrain from the wanton giving of offense





To live by Honor and for glory





To despise pecuniary reward





To fight for the welfare of all





To obey those placed in authority





To guard the Honor of fellow knights





To eschew unfairness, meanness and deceit





To keep faith





At all times to speak the truth





To persevere to the end in any enterprise begun





To respect the Honor of women





Never to refuse a challenge from an equal





Never to turn the back upon a foe
