Karl G Maeser

" I have been asked what I mean by word of honor. I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls-walls of stone ever so high, ever so thick, reaching ever so far in the ground-there is a possibility that in some way or another I might be able to escape;but stand me on a 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."

I think what this quote really means to me is that when You are surrounded by materials people and places, you can escape that one way or another. But your word of honor is something you can't escape. The only way to be able to escape it is to fulfill your end. To have a word of honor is like a promise and others might think oh its okay if I break this promise but in reality, it's not like that. Promises were created to fulfill your end of the bargain no matter what. Even if it was hard to do you have to honor that. A word of honor is similar, they were created to be followed and not broken. The same others may break it but it's not really the sensible and moral thing to do.

The 10 Indian Commandments

• Treat the Earth and all that dwells therein with respects
• Remain close to the Great Spirit
• Show great respect to your fellow beings.
• Work together for the benefit of all mankind
• Give assistance and kindness wherever needed
• Do what you know to be right
• Look after the well-being of mind and body
• Dedicate a share of your efforts to the greater good
• Be truthful and honest at all time
• Take full responsibility for your actions

Most of the Indian Commandments all talk about having good morals and thinking of others. In my personal opinion, whoever created these commandments deserves more credit because yea laws are important to follow and keep order in society but these laws that they created to care for something else. Maybe they had order in their society I'm not sure but with these commandments, I can see that the Natives had great respect for any living thing. They also were well self-disciplined to know the right apart from the wrong. All of these have the similar thing that it is to do the right thing not just for yourself but for others. Their commandments are unique but it should be something that we should all follow not just for ourselves but for others. Who knows maybe our society will fall and it will be due to the racism and violence, just because we can't accept each other.

Alexander Hamilton

" A promise must never be broken "

I'm Christian and we believe the same thing. What I learned in church is that you must honor your promise and not just drop it because a promise is so much more than words. It is something that you are tied to accomplish not just words. Even when I became Christian My mom taught me this moral and she told me don't make promises you know you can't keep and if you make a promise fulfill it.  In my opinion, a promise should be honored but nowadays people just say words and say I promise and when it comes to the moment they don't honor what they have promised.To me, a promise is like a dirty glass when you wash it thoroughly you see it shine, but if you don't wash it or don't wash it well it's not shiny or clear. What I am trying to say is when you make a promise and got through with it you feel relieved and in a way, you look "shiny" so people will trust you. But if you don't fulfill a promise you're like a dirty glass that no one trusts or uses.
