'' Hold yourself responsible for a higher standard than anybody else expects of you. Never excuse yourself''- Henry Ward Beecher


   What i think this quote is that to set yourself a high goal that no one expects you to do and do it. If you fail do not excuse yourself if you didnt make into the team then you cant say ''ohh the coach doesnt like me''.  If the high standard is to get all A's and you tell everyone im going to set my goal to get

                                                                            Thanksgiving Day

Thanksgiving day is a day to give thanks of what you have and to give to other people its a day to be kind. The background of thanksgiving is that the pilgrims shared a three day festival with a tribe near them. The pilgrims didn't use mash potatoes, pumpkin pie, or cranberry sauce they had raw cranberries. The three day festival included eating, hunting and different activities but it wasnt a national holiday till a lot of years after.



1. im thankful for my parents being with me
2. im thankful for having food to eat

                                         ''If it is not right, do not do it;  if it is not true, do not say it.''-Marcus Aurelius
                             

                                 What i think this quote means like if you if you something is bad then dont do it. If something isn't true saying like ohh this girl ditched or this boy did drugs if you know its not true then dont say it or your going to get murked. If your friends tel you lets go to 7/11 and steal a triple cheese burger, dont go because you already know its bad. Rumors are not the truth all the time so dont think all rumors are real

                               ''Doing what is right, fair and honorable is more important than winning or loosing.''- Chick Moorman


What i think this quote means is that instead winning playing the game fair is what matters and playing with respect. Like if you and your friends are playing golf  and  at the end you notice that you lost but you made it in the hole more than him so then you notice that he cheated but you dont cheat now because he is,  you keep playing honorably and respectfully it dont  matter if you if you or loose as long as you play the right way.  CTR!!!

                                                       The 3 magic keys to living your life with integrity are

1. Having the courage to say no
 2. have the courage to face the truth
  3. Do the right thing because it is right                        W. Clement Stone


   What i think this quote means to be honest with yourself you have to have the courage to say no you also have to have the courage to face the truth. Those two  examples of integrity are ways to live your lives with honesty. If your friends say lets go ding gong ditch or jump the fence to go to the elementary school in Frank block you have to have the courage  to say no that you dont want to be posted up on frank block.  You have to have the courage to face the truth like if you ditched lunch and went to another and if the

                          ''He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.''- proverbs 13:20

  what i think this quote means is that if you hang out with people that do good and do good things you will become like them but if you hang around with people that do bad you will start doing because  of the peer pressure and whatever they do is gonna affect you because your with them like if they gett arrested and your next to them you might get arrested to.

                                         ''The best recreation is to do good.''- William Penn


What this quote is saying is that doing something you like or something that makes you feel good is doing good rather if its even in school or in doing a good thing if you help an old lady cross the street or help people answer why did the chicken cross the road. Those good things would be a recreation because there good things.

              ''Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it.''- William Penn

What i think this quote means is if you do the right thing like lets say your friends shoplift and you say no and all your friends say lame even though your by yourself its still the right thing and if you joined your friends even though you all did it dont make it right you guys still did something wrong so its better to be alone to choose the right than be with a group of people choosing to do bad stuff.
