“ I have been asked what i mean by ‘word of honor’. I will tell you: place me behind prison walls-walls of stone ever so high,ever so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground-there is a possibility that in some way or another I might escape; but stand me on the floor and draw a chalk line around me and have me give my word of honor never to cross it. Can I get out of that circle? No, never! I’d die first.”
~ Karl G. Maeser
