-Dale Murphy

"I won't cheat"

Reflection: His quote is basically means what it says, He won't cheat, but it also means more, he is trying to teach people everywhere children and adults, that cheating is wrong, it is not right to cheat, and if you cheat and win, your only cheating yourself because that wasn't really winning, that was losing making everyone else think that you have won. So i agree with Dale Murphy it isn't right to cheat and you should always remember that when you cheat YOU ARE ONLY CHEATING YOURSELF!!!

James Freeman Clarke

"It may take a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today."

Reflection: His quote is saying that if you do right or wrong it may and possibly will make a difference later on in your life, so if you do wrong it could affect your future in a bad way, and if you do right then it can affect your future in a good way. So for example if you help someone carry their groceries to their car, someone might do the same for you or maybe something different and better later on in the future, and say if you steal money from someone, the same might happen to you or maybe something even worse, later on in the future, so it's basically good and bad karma, and if you don't believe in karma then you should believe in doing the right thing, so when you do something you should always stop and think is this right, so you should always do your very best to do the right thing.

George Washington

             Student Success Statement

George Washington

"Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone that in bad company."

Reflection: his quote is saying that you should be friends and interact with people who do good because like if you have a good reputation keep it that way and don't let no one try to change that. Also his quote is saying that it's better to be alone rather than being with a crowd that does bad things, i kind of agree with that but yet i don't because like his quote is saying don't be around people who do wrong, but yet we all do wrong, every one does wrong, so is his quote saying be away from yourself????  But like its ok to be friends with someone who does wrong because friendship is true, but like as long as you don't follow in their footsteps and let them change into someone you're not and someone they try to make you to be.

Thomas S. Monson

"You can't be right by doing wrong; you can't be wrong by doing right."

Reflection: His quote is saying that if you do wrong you might not always be right, but if you do wrong you were doing it to prove you were right, some people do go great lengths to prove that they were right, so if some times you have to do wrong to be right, then go for it. He is also saying that you can't be wrong by doing right, but that is a lie you can be wrong by doing right, just because you do good doesn't mean your always gonna be right, if you do something good you could be wrong, being good all your life won't take you far, doing good will take you far, but sooner or later there's gonna be an obstacle that being or doing good can't get you through. His quote is saying that if you do wrong you will never be right and if you do good you will never be wrong, but that is one of the biggest lied i have ever heard! Sometimes you have to do wrong to be right or prove that your right because like I said before doing good all the the time won't always take you very far. Every one on this planet does wrong it's like second nature to us nobody is perfect we all do wrong we all sin and that's just the plain TRUTH!
