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

Sophocles

If you win by cheating and receive the “honor” you really didn't earn it you won’t feel the same honor as you could have if you won the fair way. Take sports for example if you cheat or you know you did something that was against the rules and end up winning your team won’t receive the same honor it could have if you or your teammates have not cheated. If you play fair and you didn't cheat and followed all your rules your team will receive the correct honor it deserves. I agree with this quote it’s better to fail with honor than to win by cheating.
