"Always do right." 

-Mark Twain

This quote by Mark Twain means that a person must always do whats right no matter what circumstances. People choosing to go with the majority even if its wrong, doesn't make it right. What is wrong is wrong, what is right is right, and one must always choose the right.

When You Tell One Lie It Leads to Another

-Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie it leads to another

So you tell two lies to cover each other

Then you tell three lies and, Oh brother, 

You're in trouble up to your ears!

So you tell four lies to try to protect you 

Then you tell five lies so folks won't suspect you 

Then you tell six lies and you'll collect 

A life filled with worries and fears 

'Cause you can't remember how many lies you've told 

And half the things you say aren't true

And sometimes you'll slip up, you'll trip up 

and then 

whatever will become of you?

So you lie without even trying

and each lie you tell will keep multiplying 

'Till the whole world will know 

you're lying 

Then you'll be

Suspected 

Detected

Rejected

Neglected

Disliked 

And you should!

When you lie, You're closing the door

 on everything good

"When you tell one lie it leads to another." 

-Paul Hatch

          

Reflection: After reading this quote i think it means that as soon as you tell a lie you cannot stop. You have to keep the lies going to keep up with the other lies and you're in an endless cycle that you cannot escape because you do not want to tell the truth. The lies continue and no one will believe you which is why you shouldn't lie in the first place. Lying is not something you should have to continue and its better you stop before you even say one, it might lead to another.

"If the answer is YES, there is no way you can fail." 

-Lou Holtz

reflection: After reading this quote I believe that Holtz is asking us these questions because they are questions that reflect who we are or who you want to be no matter who you actually are. It is your actual response and your way of life. I answered yes to all three questions because I do believe I will not fail.

Student Success Statement

"Physical fitness is not only one of the most important keys to a healthy body, it is the basis of dynamic and creative intellectual activity. The relationship between the soundness of the body and the activities of the mind is subtle and complex. Much is not yet understood. But we do know what the Greeks knew: that intelligence and skill can only function at the peak of their capacity when the body is healthy and strong."

- President John F. Kennedy

Reflection: I think what Kennedy means by this quote is that if one has a healthy, strong body, then one has the intelligence capacity of all oneself can have. A healthy body will not distract you from your goals and it will not interfere with your thinking.Unlike having an unhealthy body that will distract you from your goals because you have to focus on your body more than your work. Having a healthy body will keep you sharp and help reach your maximum creativity and intellect level.
