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

What this means is that when you cheat and you either get a good score or win at a game it is wrong because you didn’t play the right way you cheated and it’s not fair when you win because you cheated it’s not right. If you lose by doing what’s right then it shows that you at least tried and did your best. For example you have to take a test for your next class but you didn’t study so your friends tell you that you should cheat and that you will pass the test. You start to think about cheating or not at the end it’s almost time to take the test so you decided to cheat, the teacher gives you the test and you cheat on it you turn it in and then a week later he passes the test back and you see that you passed the test but you passed it by cheating which is wrong. Then you realize that it was wrong so you promise yourself that on the next test you won’t cheat so you don’t cheat on the next test and you fail that test because you didn’t cheat but it is good because you failed but you didn’t cheat.
