Student Success Statement

“I have been asked what i mean by

“word of honor” I will tell you

. Place me behind prison walls-

walls of stone ever to 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 gives a very deep and good quote aboutthe word honor he defines it very

well and gives great examples. The

word of another tells you a lot of things

including the place behind a person that has

been in prison walls. They know exactly

what they've gone through and they know

now what honor is. Karl is saying that he

will forever be honored because he says

if he steps out of the circle he would prefer

dying then that happening to him becaus

e he feels like he should always be

in that circle no matter what like if it was his life. Things

happen and you lose your honor but you

have to be positive and try to become

honorable again because if he’s not

positive about trying to be honorable

again then it won’t happen. You have

to try your best to become honorable

it’s a very good thing to feel when you are

honorable. Choose the right and neve

r get out of the circle because it’s dangerous.
