Student Success Statement - 3/5/18

"They're only truly great who are truly good." - George Chapman

This quote doesn't really make sense to me, i guess it was supposed to say "Those who are great, are truly good." When the quote is put that way then i agree. I agree because when someone is good that has to mean that all aspects of them are good. If someone is good but lies then they are not good. For example, a good baseball player. If they are good on the field but a bad husband, they are no longer good. Also if a good baseball player is good on the field but uses steroids then they are no longer good. You have to be completely good to be considered a genuinely good person. I aspire to be a good person, I am not a bad person but I am neither a genuinely good human being.

Student Success Statement

   "Only those live who do good."- Count Leo Tolstoy   This quote, in other words, is saying people that make bad choices don't live to their fullest potential and aren't happy. I partially disagree with this quote because not everyone that makes bad decisions are unhappy. Most people that live a bad life are miserable but very few do not live miserably. I know several people that use drugs, which in some peoples eyes is a bad choice, and they live a happy life, they are intelligent, and get good grades. Also, not everyone that makes bad choices understand why their choices are wrong so they don't even realize and don't feel guilty which helps them live a normal happy life. Another reason why i disagree with this is because many people i know live in discomfort and are unhappy even though they make good choices. For example, my mom. Throughout my moms life she has always chosen the right, she has never been disrespectful, she looked after for herself...
