S.S.S

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

Sophocles

I believe this quotes by Sophocles means that he would rather fail something than by winning from cheating. For example, if you had a test and you knew you didnt know it then thats your own problem for not studying but if you cheat and pass then at the same time you wouldnt feel good because you passed a test that you shouldnt have passed. You were the one that lacked in studying to get a good grade.
