‘’I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating’’
Sophocles

This quote that we received today is something that not most people do these days. People tend to cheat their way out of things so they won't have to get in trouble or fail at something. For example, If there was a basketball game and my team won and the other team lost people would think that that is a fair game. The only thing that people don't know is that one of my teammates cheated their way of of the game to get our team a victory. That there isn't being honest to yourself. I would rather fail and keep my head up and trying that win but cheating your way out. Cheating is basically saying that you know you're going to fail so you need extra support because you know that the  team that you're going against is tough to beat. If people knew that you cheated the whole time they would completely lose all respect for you and call to the loser because you did something that is against the rules. When you're not truthful to yourself then you must be full of worries. Honestly no one wants to live that way. It's like you're making yourself miserable when you cheat because later on in life you will regret it.
