“ I won’t Cheat” - Dale Murphy

This quote by Dale Murphy is a promise that we all should keep forever. And that is to not cheat. You cannot cheat in exams, in sports, or even as an individual. We all should say this promise, “ I won’t cheat” And we should keep this promise because it is for the best and it is the right thing to do. If you cheat for the rest of your life, you are going to the wrong path. Cheating is a dishonest act in which you might get “addicted” after you it the first time. Many people think that cheating will help them be successful, however, it will not always help you be successful. For example, if you cheated on tests and classwork in  which you got good grades for the rest of your high school and college education, you won’t have the ability to have the knowledge you need. If you want to become a surgeon, but you cheated on the training and tests, you might not be the greatest surgeon out there in the medical field. You might do a ton of mistakes while doing the surgery. This example interferes with the quote, because if we all don’t cheat, we will have a successful life. Cheating school is called academic cheating which is pretty bad for your future. You can also cheat yourself as an individual. If you cheat, you are cheating yourself. In other words, you are just doing bad to you and that will affect only you. Dale Murphy really relies on this quote that he even made a “ I won’t cheat” foundation. Therefore, this is powerful. We shall not cheat.

“ Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or                                                       losing.”

                                By: Chick Moorman

This statement is by Moorman is really meaningful. He is telling the audience that doing what is fairly is far more important than winning or losing. Doing the “honorable” way means not cheating and and doing the right way. The opposite of honorable is being dishonest, unfair, uncooperative, and disrespectful. An example of this statement is a person cheating for a test.  This represents the dishonesty of a person itself. They are doing what its right and this person is doing the wrong just to get a good grade on a test. The person may win an A , but not a win deep inside him. So that is why doing what is right is far more important than winning or losing. Another example that i similar with this is a person copying and pasting an article from the internet. The person was caught so he lose. He loss and he chose the wrong. What the person did wasn’t right nor fair. Doing the right thing like doing things fairly is extremely important than losing and winning.
