“I won’t cheat.”To me this quote is making a promise to yourself to not ever cheat on anything in life. The reason for this is because cheating comes with many consequences. This can affect your good name, and the trust between you and an individual. If you cheat in school, your aren’t really learning anything about the topic. This will result in you being dumb, and always having to rely on others to give you the answers. You shouldn’t cheat because if you get caught, then you will have to take a zero on the assignment that you cheated on. There was a college class in which everyone had to retake an exam because some found the answer sheets. Cheating can affect you, and those around you as well. Cheating will only benefit you for a short time. But there is going to be plenty of times where you aren’t given the opportunity to cheat. For example an exam closely monitored by a huge staff. Another example can be the use of performance enhancing drugs in sports. Many players get caught because of guilt, or the random testing for for the specific drug.

“Character matters most.” This statement means that character is more important than anything else in the world. There is so many things that are important in this world, but when it comes to character, you have to push everything else aside. Dale Murphy followed this, and this ultimately led to his success. An example of this could be when he wouldn’t accept interviews, unless he was well dressed. I can infer that he did this because he wanted to look like a good and professional individual. This is one of the reasons why people saw him as a good person. He about his career and fame. But he mostly cared about the character of his friends, family, and himself. He had 398 career home runs, and is now retired. Yet people still look up to this retired player because of his good character.

St. Patrick’s Day

St. Patrick’s Day

Who was St. Patrick? St. Patrick was a fifth-century Romano-British Christian missionary and bishop in Ireland. Known as the “Apostle of Ireland”, he is the primary patron saint of Ireland.

What is the purpose of St. Patrick’s Day? Celebrates the Roman catholic feast day of the patron saint of ireland.

Why is St. Patrick’s Day designated when it is? St. Patrick died on March 17, 461.

Why a certain color on St. Patrick’s day? Pinching people on St Patrick's day is thought to revolve around the leprechaun and the legend that wearing green makes one invisible to the mischievous fairies. As the dubious legend dictates, leprechauns would pinch anyone not wearing green – so people pinch those not wearing green to remind them.

“Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all.” To me this quote means that a right heart will always surpass and other quality or characteristic of a person. No matter how beautiful, strong, or rich they are. A great heart will always surpass anything else. An example of this can be one of those music artists who have all these dazzling qualities. They might be attractive, rich, and strong, but they might be disliked by many because the lack of heart they have. Someone who fits in all these including having a right heart, will be mostly known for their heart. The other qualities will always be the minority.

“ It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today.” What this quote means is that your actions at any time can result in a major difference in all eternity, meaning your image or name. James Holmes was a really good student and earned almost all A’s. He was also very intelligent at a very young age. But one day he decided to commit mass murder and was given 12 life sentences and 3,318 years in prison for his crimes. Although he was an amazing student, he messed up by his one known bad doing. His one terrible action had an impact on his life, and the lives of the people who were there to experience the shooting. This incident had a huge impact on the world, and lots of places in the US that are heavily populated, now have an upgrade in security.
