"Honor and shame from no condition rise" suggests that one's sense of honor and shame should not be tied to social status or circumstances. Instead, honor and shame are qualities that come from within a person's character and actions. It emphasizes the idea that true honor is earned through one's behavior and values, rather than external factors.
Not really. An adverb is a word that describes a verb: ie. strongly swimming, loudly singing, heavilydrinking.You might stretch that category to include honor, ie. honor killing, but it is pretty tenuous (in that example, honor is a noun rather than a verb).
Honor often involves upholding one's values and principles with certainty, as a person who is certain in their beliefs is perceived as being honorable and trustworthy. Certainty can also be seen as a sign of integrity and commitment to one's values, which are important components of honor. Being certain in one's actions can help to maintain a sense of honor and respect in relationships and communities.
This quote emphasizes the importance of honor above personal well-being in the context of Bushido, the code of honor followed by samurai in feudal Japan. It reflects the belief that sacrificing one's life is acceptable if it upholds one's honor or duty. In Bushido, honor and integrity were prized above all else, often leading samurai to prioritize their reputation and moral code over their own physical safety.
