"Only those live who do good."
                                            -Count Leo Tolstoy

This quote means that if you do good then you are living life. Choose whats right. Do the positive things instead of the negative. It also means that if you want to get the best out of life then you should do good. Doing something that's good daily is really good for your life. An example of this quote is helping a homeless person and giving them food. This shows that you are being helpful and because you helped someone then you will continue your day happy and living life. You should always take advantage of everyday. Some don't get to see the light of another day so we should all be appreciative for life. So as long as you are doing good positive things then you are most likely living life.

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right."
                                                    -Albert Einstein

This quote means that what seems popular and what people do all the time isn't precisely right. For example if you see people doing drugs it might be popular but you know it isn't right.  Even if you choose the right sometimes it might not be popular but at least you conscience is clear. Sometimes being different is better than being popular.

"I hated poverty. Poverty is more of a choice than anything else, and I can change that (poverty). It depends upon how hard I want to work, and I decided that I would change it."
                                                      -Dr. Ben Carson 

This quote means that you you can get and be anything you want depending on how much you desire it. An example of this quote would be passing a test. If you really want to pass it then you will study because thats what you want its the choice you took. But if you decide to not study and fail the test then thats your choice but it will lead you to nowhere. Choose the right. Always  make good choices and you will get far in life.

Never, because "You cant be right by doing wrong; you can't be wrong by doing right."
                                             -Thomas S. Monsond

This quote means that you could never feel good or not guilty when you have done something bad. You should always choose the right. Sometimes people do bad things just for the benefit for them. People are selfish and become cruel. But you could never do something negative and feel good about yourself because is wrong. An example of this quote would be stealing from your parents. Maybe you need money for something but stealing is not the way of getting it. Asking for money would be way better than stealing. If they don't give you money then you just have to understand and move on. But you should always choose the right so you feel good.

So do whats right and always chose the right.

1.Have the courage to say no.
2.Have the courage top face the truth.
3.Do the right because it is right. 
                                              -W. Clement Stone 

What W. Clement Stone is trying to tell us that living a life with integrity is always better. He says if you follow these three magic steps you will live a better life. For number one he is trying to say that you should say no to things that you know are wrong. For example if a friend offers you drugs you should say no and walk away. My mom always tells me that whatever i do i should always face the consequences. An example of this is when you get caught copying someone else's homework, own up to it and say the truth. That's basically what number two is trying to say face the truth and say the truth even if its hard and get punish. At the end you will feel relief and better about yourself because you were honest. Lastly, number three is saying to always choose the right, it leads you to a better pathway. So remember these few steps and you will live with a lot of integrity. Most importantly you will be happy with yourself.

" He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed."
                                                       Proverb 13:20

   This quote means that who ever you surround yourself with matters. If you surround yourself with positive people then you are more likely to do good positive stuff for yourself and  others. An example of this quote is a high school student. He wants to graduate but he knows that if his companions/friends are good people the way to graduate will be more easy. Not being pressure to do drugs instead being pressure to study and do the right thing. Like everything their is always a good and a bad side. Surrounding yourself with good people will obviously lead you to a positive path but if you surround yourself with bad people they might lead you on to a bad, negative path. An example of this quote is having friends that like to party, drink, and smoke. You are choosing bad companionship. This will lead you nowhere. So remember choose the right and become a wiser person.

"Right is right, even if everyone is against it, and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it." 
                                               -William Penn
        
      This quote means to always choose the right. Even when your friends or those who surround you aren't doing the right thing. You as a person should know whats right or wrong. An example of this quote is when you go to a party and everyone else is drinking you should always be the bigger person and stand out for yourself. You should always say no to drugs. Do the right thing. Another example of this quote doing an essay, just because other students don't do it, it doesn't mean you wont have to do it. Always do what betters yourself. Your morals are worth more than by taking wrong choices. Choose the right.

"Don't sacrifice what you want most for what you want now. Write down what you want most and see it often."
                                                  -Peter Vidmar

This quote means to do do what you desire the most.Wait patiently and good things will approach you. Sometimes we can be stubborn and think that what we want now is more important than other things but this isn't true. Good things take time to happen. Patience is key. Don't give up no matter how hard it gets. An example of this quote is a student trying to go to college, he needs to pass an exam in order for him to graduate but he also wants to go to a party. Even though a party sounds like fun he should stay home and study because going to college is more important than going to a party. Put your bigger dreams first.

"A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches."  Proverbs 22:1

                      This quote means that having a good name, a good outlook of who you are is better than being rich. Being rich has its positive side but also negative sides. Being a good person in general is better than having millions. It also means that happiness is more important than money. Why have money and be unhappy? Life is all about enjoying it, but how are you going to enjoy it if you are unhappy? My mom always tells me "money isn't everything" and indeed she is correct. An example of this quote is a man with millions of dollars but he is unhappy because he has no one to spend not only his money but his entire life. At the end your self outlook and happiness is way more important than money.

"A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life''
                                             -Mike Krzyzewski

As we all know that whatever we do in this life even if its bad or good it will follow you until you die. In other words your reputation. What you do is your choice, you choose to the be the person that you want. But isn't it nice when other people hear your name and get happy, get good memories, its a great feeling overall. From the moment you take your first breath till you take you last breath whatever you do in your lifetime will follow you forever always remember that. One example of this quote is someone who does their homework and obeys rules. This person will have a good reputation and people are most likely going to be happy being around them. Also having a good reputation will help you succeed in life. Oppose to someone who chooses the wrong they will have a bad reputation and most likely not succeed in life. Choose the right.
