Statement
“Honesty is the
cornerstone of character. The honest man or woman seeks not merely to avoid
criminal or illegal acts, but to be scrupulously, fair, upright, fearless, to
both action and expression. Honesty pays dividends both in dollars and in peace
of mind.”
-B.C Forbes
Reflection:
What this statement
probably means is that if honesty is what shows your character and that an
honest person wouldn't do what is wrong. But be strong and fair. In other words
honesty represents character and the honest man/woman always is fair,
respectful, and brave. For example, someone who is honest shows that they are
fair and brave, but a dishonest person shows that they are cowards and unfair. Another
example is if someone finds someone else’s phone and decides to return it then
he is a honest and brave person and if they decide not to turn it in then they
are not honest.
