Student Success STatement - 5/10/2018

"I would prefer even to fail with honor than win by cheating." - Sophicles 
This quote is a quote that quotes that it is better to lose  honestly than win dishonestly. I think that this quote is true, but how do we know if Sophicles actually said this? I often wonder about that with some of the quotes. This quote can be talking about almost anything, it could be talking about a race, a baseball game, basketball, a horse race, or a wrestling match. This quote can be used even when not talking about a sport or competition. The simple act of doing a test or your homework has opportunities to cheat because cheating can be done at any time and in any way. The idea that winning is the most important thing is false, the most important thing is being honest and letting the person that is truly the best, be the best and win without using things to enhance their performance. This quote demonstrates havign good values and how to accept that sometimes we dont win, but if we were honest and played fair, its not really losing since you gave it your all.

"What's right isn't always popular. What's popular isn't always right." - Albert Einstein I agree with this quote. I agree with this quote because it is true. It is true because many times people get the wrong impression about certain things just because many people are doing it. Making good decisions is very important and i understand that at times it is harder to make good decisions because maybe a group of your friends isn't making bad choices. This quote is telling me that good choices aren't always made by people but it is important for your sake that you choose the right regardless of if anyone is making the same choice.
