What I think that this quote means it that no matter what situation you are that you should always do what is right. you have to have the courage to do what is right even if you are scared that it won’t go good for you. Always do what is right even if you are scared. For example if you feel afraid that people will make fun of you because you are choosing the right, you still have to choose what is right because it is the right thing to do.

“I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating.”
                    -Sophocles
What I think that this quote means is that it is always better to choose what is right even if it means that you lose. To not choose to cheat because it is not a honorable thing to do. It is more honorable to loose with pride then to win knowing that you cheated and won. For example if you play a sport and you know your next match is going to be complicated but you still choose to not cheat even if everyone does it.

       Attitude is the minds paintbrush. It can color any situation.

                                                 Anonymous


What I think that this quote means is that if you have a bad attitude towards something then you will make things harder for you and your life will be more complicated. But if you know something is going to be hard and you have a good attitude towards your bad situation then you will make it better because your attitude changed and you make things much easier for you.
