This quote means that cheating is wrong. Cheating and winning doesn't make you a winner at all. Honor is the best thing you can have, it's better to fail with honor, it shows what type of person you are. If you cheat and get caught, that can mess up for life. If you win or fail with honor it shows what type of morals you have, and it shows your parents raised you right. Doing the right will always do good, that's why you have to do it all the time. Doing wrong will not get you anywhere in life, so why would you do it.Choosing the right will make you feel good while you do good, and it will get you out of trouble. Doing the wrong will make you feel bad, especially if you win because of cheating. You have to choose the right because it is the right thing to do.

This quote means that doing wrong is something that won't benefit you. Doing the right will keep pushing you forward. If you do wrong you will get pushed back and when you learn your lesson you will be right where you started. You have to do the right because you want to keep on moving forward. Going back will only prevent you from your true potential. You have to do good because that will help you become a better person, and being a good person can affect what you do in the future. For example, if you get caught lying you don't gain anything, you only go back. It's like a board game, you want to keep going forward, but if you keep on going back you will lose the game. You wan to win the game, so that's why you have to keep on moving forward. Going back will only lead you to bad things.

 This quote means that nothing compares t having a right heart. You can get beauty, strength, and great riches; but getting a right is heart is something you can't just get, you have to work to get a right heart. Having a right heart means always thinking before you do and always choosing the right. A right heart is so valuable that some people don't have one. A right heart is something your have to work hard to get, not something that is just handed to you. You have to be willing to have a right heart, or else you won't get one. A right heart is something that will never fade once you get it. And a right heart will always be useful and will never turn against you. You have to work to get things, it can't be handed things all your life. That's why most people that get handed things on a silver platter tend to think having a right heart will be handed to them too.

This quote means that you have to always think before you act, because if you stop and think it can change your life. People tend to do things without thinking, they think it won't affect them but it will. You have to be smart and ask yourself if this is right or wrong. If it is right then do it and if it is wrong don't do it. A right choice is something that will affect you in a positive way and the wrong choice is if it affects you in a negative way. You have to thin ahead because right and wrong can either affect you in a good way or it can mes up your life. An example of this a homeless man returning a ring, he could have sold the ring and gotten, but he did the right thing and returned it. He got rewarded big time, not only did he have the couple that lost engagement ring start a fund for him, and receiving more money, he also reunited with his family. He got so much more than if he would have sold it. That's why you have to think ahead because one day your life can ei...

This quote mean that if do your best and do good, you will be recognized for good things. An example of this is when you are always doing your work in school and doing good, people will  recognized you for that. But if you do bad you will only be recognized as the person who does bad things. Honor is only given when you do good things but it can be taken away if you do bad . If you always do goo, honor will follow your around, but doing bad things will not bring honor. Another example is if you cheat on your test but you get a good grade, people will think you are working hard but once they find out you have been cheating your honor will be taken away. That's why you must always do good things since nothing good will happen to you when you do bad. Doing bad will bring nothing good, you know that but you still end up doing. Good will always bring happiness and positive things. Honor is important that's why you must do good so you can keep your honor.

This quote means that doing the popular thing doesn't matter, because most likely it will be wrong. You can't let "oh but everyone is doing it" be your answer every time. Like drinking, you shouldn't be pressured to drink because you want to seem cool, if they complain then oh well, it your body they don't make the choices. An example of this is when you are at a party and people are trying get you to drink, if you seem "cool" and drink you'll be affecting your body. People focus on trying to be popular that they don't realize that being popular doesn't matter later on in life. Some people have a different idea of fun, that excludes drinking or smoking. If you pressure people into doings things your not letting them choose for themselves, it their body so you shouldn't choose what they put in it. And if people think you "can't hang" then that's their problem, you shouldn't care what they think. I don't enjoy ...
