"Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all." -Benjamin Franklin I agree with Benjamin Franklin's statement. Without a good heart you can't do anything right. If you have a right heart you have good intentions of doing the right thing.

Student Success Statement

"Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly."- I agree with Graham's statement. Before you do or say something you have to think about it. You have to decide weather what you are about to do is going to hurt someone or make them feel better. An example of doing the right thing was on the news. A homeless man was asking for money and when a lady put her hand in the bucket to give him money she accidentally dropped her engagement ring. The guy went to check how much it was and a man offered him $4,000. He thought about cashing it in to pay rent for an apartment, but he did the right thing and instead he waited for the lady to come back and he would give it to her. When the lady came back to claim her ring she was so grateful that the man had not cashed it in. She started a go fund me account for him and they earned enough money for him to get a house. Not only that, but the man reconnected with his family.

Student Success Statement

" Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company." -George Washington I agree with George Washington's statement. When you associate yourself with good people you start to act like good people. You see what they are doing and it rubs off on you, so you start to do the same.
