It is a natural and honorable thing to want to know how a close friend died.
I thought, perhaps, he was going to offer to do the honorable thing.
"At least I was able to do the honorable thing."
I don't mean age old, because that's an honorable thing.
"He is running because it's the only honorable thing to do."
"We've done a lot for children in the past, and I think it's a very honorable thing to continue."
It would have been the only honorable thing to do.
"One could almost respect them for doing the honorable thing."
"It was an honorable thing to do for our little boy."
It was not a necessary but an honorable thing to do on his part.
