Mr.Haymore 

I think this statment means that you should always choose the right on the positive things that will accomplish you in life, and choosing the wrong will lead you to unhappiness things and to negative things or thoughts.

Student Success Statement

“Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.”

Aristotle

I think what this means is that if you’re thinking about bad stuff or having a bad attitude then you’re not educating your mind and if you have a good attitude then maybe you’re educating your heart and that can educate your mind. For example talking back to the teacher or to a person then that will bring you no education to your mind or heart, and if you don’t then maybe you’ll fell your heart and mind receiving that education.

Student Sucess Statement

"Chosing the right thing is always the right thing to do."

I think this statement is true because is you choose the wrong thing or the wrong way then it will lead you to bad things for example being in bad problems and never accomplishing what you want. So this statement is so true for me becuase this means  that we all make mistakes in life but that doesnt mean we have to be doing bad the whole time.

Student Sucess Statement

"It's better to be alone than to be in bad company."

ANON 

I think this statement is true because being with someone that is just going to change you into a bad person wont take you nowhere. Also just because your hanging out with bad people it doesn’t mean there going to all like you and want to hang out with you.

"You cannot do wrong and feel right. It Is Impossible."

Ezra T.Benson 

I think this statement is true because knowing you did something wrong wont bring you to feel right. Another reason why is because how can you do something wrong and feel good about it. For example stealing something from someone and then your telling everyone what you did and how you did it and feeling good about doing it.

"Tell me what is right and I will fight for It"

Woodrow Wilson

I think what this means is that everything you do that you think is right fight for it until you accomplish it. For example you wanting to achieve your goal and your trying so hard on doing it and being someone in life, and then someone comes up to you trying to change who you are into a bad person. Then you will have to fight for your rights on acheiving what you want.

"In any moment of decision, the best thing you can do is the right thing"

Theodore Roosvelt 

I think what this means is that when your in a hard decision or in a hard situation all you need to do is think if your doing the right thing and if your choosing whats best for you and for others. Knowing what your doing right would lead you do a better way on making your great decision.
