The Bodyguard Oath:

I will protect my client in every way possible knowing that my first responsibility is to perform my duties so as to avoid all confrontations. I will put my client's needs ahead of mine and protect in a non-obtrusive manner that will not jeopardize his well-being. If necessary I vow to protect his life at the sake of my own, but pray that my skills are such as to keep us both from harm's way.
