Student Success Statement
"I am not bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stand right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he goes wrong."
-Abraham Lincoln
Reflection: This quote means to me that Lincoln knew he wasn't always going to be right and won over the favor but what he meant when he at least tried was always true. He would stand and support the person if he was right but if he was not then Lincoln would not support him. Just like any other person should do. If someone wins but is wrong, then one should not follow, it better to lose and be right than win in the bad light. Lincoln was a rightful president and he should be a great role model to every person. He was in support of getting rid of slaves, which was the right thing to do, but in the beginning he was not favored. Later through doing the right, he stood behind everyone that knew the right thing to do and slavery was ended.
