Student Success Statement
“Honesty is the cornerstone of character. The honest
man or women seeks not merely to avoid criminal or illegal acts, but to be
scrupulously fair, upright, fearless in both action and expression. Honesty pays
dividends both in dollars and in peace of mind.”-B.C. Forbes
Reflection: I think this quote means
you hone to be honest to people so that you can have their trust in you and you
won’t need to work hard because you have their trust with honesty. Also that
when one has honesty that’s all you need for you to be reliable because if you
are like this people will admire you because of your action. If you weren’t
people wouldn’t want you around because you probably wouldn’t be loyal.
