Simplified Meaning:
This quote means that it's important for a person to keep their promises and be reliable, just like how they would follow rules or laws. For instance, imagine you tell a friend that you’ll help them move to a new house on the weekend. If you don’t show up, your friend will feel let down and won’t trust you as much in the future. Keeping your word builds trust and shows that you are dependable. It’s similar to how following laws keeps society running smoothly by ensuring everyone knows what to expect from each other. In everyday life, this advice suggests sticking to what you say, being honest, and acting with integrity. This way, people will respect and trust you more.
