“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.” -Sophocles

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”
-Sophocles
What this quote defines is that it’s better to win a race or something with honor than cheating. If you cheat, of course you will win but you will feel regret and you won't feel like you actually accomplished something by using your knowledge. I prefer to study for a test and get a 100 on it than cheating because I will feel good about myself that I earned a perfect score on my own using my own brain. Cheaters are CTW’S. Cheaters are just people who are lazy and obnoxious. Cheaters will make it through whatever they want but when they’re charge of doing something on their own without cheating, they won’t be able to know what to do. For example, winning in a sport by cheating using a drug to give you more energy is the worst thing ever. You will have fans out there rooting for you thinking you’re doing everything on your own, but when they find out you were the cheating the whole time, they will get disappointed and you will lose respect from your fans. Failing by honor than winning by cheating is better because at least you tried and didn't have to cheat in order to win. In life, cheaters don’t accomplish anything. When they get caught they will never be trusted again and their reputation will be ruined. Those who actually try and fail in honor are CTR’S. It’s important to CTR no matter what situation you are in. CTR is to try your best and not cheat. That should be everyone's motto.
