I read this post on Scripting News today that included this line.
Like a boat, a human being has integrity.
I really liked this.
It got me thinking: if a boat doesn’t have integrity, it starts to sink, and I think the same thing happens with people. If someone acts without integrity, I think it is only a matter of time before they end up in a situation where the holes in who they are and what they do start causing real problems.
