Summary

This quote suggests that the word of a true gentleman carries immense value and trustworthiness. Just like a formal agreement or contract, a gentleman's promise is considered as reliable as his written bond. However, the quote also implies that a gentleman's word can sometimes hold even greater weight than a written agreement. It highlights the significance of a person's integrity, honor, and reputation, suggesting that a trustworthy individual's word alone can be enough to establish faith and deliver on commitments. Ultimately, the quote emphasizes the importance of maintaining one's character and integrity in all interactions.
