“WORD OF HONOR”

“WORD OF HONOR”

“I have been asked what i mean by “WORD OF HONOR” i will tell you: place me behind prison walls-walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick reaching ever so far into the ground-there is a possibility that in some way or another i might be able to escape, but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can i get out of that circle? No never! I’d die first. -Karl G. Maeser-

What this quote mean that you should keep your word at all times. Even if something happened you have to keep your word on doing that something you promised. If you are not a man of your wood then you are considered a liar. Trust me nobody likes liars around them. If you are around a liar then you won't feel safe because he will be lying that you are safe. Let say you promised to do something for someone. Later  something comes up. You can't just do that thing that came up. You will have to ask if it can happen later. If not you will lie and people will lose trust in you.
