   "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 and siblings, and she was obedient. Now, she is sometimes unhappy and it isn't due to anything she has done. My point is, you life is planned for you. Yes it is true, if you don't do what is right it will come back to you but just because you make a bad choice it wont always reflect on you unless it is destined to. Things happen for a reason and life will go on whether or not you make a bad/good choice because you can do good your whole life but there will always be bad in the world which can one way or another affect you.

Student Success Statement - 3/23/2018

"My basic principle is that you don't make decisions because they are easy; you don't make them because they are cheap; you don't make them because they're popular; you make them because they're right." - Theodore Hesburgh  This quote is being said by former President of Notre Dame, Theodore Hesburgh. He is saying that all the decisions we make should be driven by the concept that the choice you are making is what is right. Many times people don't make decisions bcause it is the best choice but some people make them because it is what everyone else is doing. Just because everyone else is doing something it doesn't mean that it is automatically wrong, sometimes the popular choice is the best choice.  There have been many times when people have chosen something because it is popular and I don't think that is right. I feel like this quote is something many people should think about when making choices.
