Something like "manliness is the door to respect."
The Latin "virtus" is in classical Latin not the same as "virtue", it means "male" virtues, like courage and strength. It is connected to "vir"=man, and "honor" had also a slight shift in meaning since it's been taken over into English.

Virtue is the doorway to honor.
