“Act well your part; there all honor lies.”
-Alexander Pope
This quote is one no one really thinks about but, it is still true. When you act right you have honor, but when you choose the wrong you don’t have any honor. A non-example of this can be with the Jackie Robinson Little League Baseball Team of Illinois. They were one of the best teams in the world, in fact the second best team in the world. They were beaten by a team in South Korea. The only problem was that the Jackie Robinson team was no playing by the rules. They used players out of their district that qualified for the team. They did that illegally behind everyone's backs and because of that, the team was stripped from their championships and stripped from their title from second place world champions. This is why it is always better to play by the rules, at least you’ll have your honor.
