“I have asked what i mean by “Word Of Honor” I will tell you: Place me behind prison walls- walls of stone ever so high, even so thick, reaching ever so far into the ground- there is a possibilities that in some way or another i might be able to 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

I believe that this quote means that if you make a promise you can never ever break that promise. There is no rule to making a promise but you are known to not to break it. For example it connects to the quote we did before about a Promise is a thing that can never be broken.
