''I wont cheat'' Dale Murphy   I think that you should never cheat because you could regret it in the end and it also doesn't benefit you in any way. Theirs many other things you could do to pass a test or to win a game or sport. For example, if your about to have a test you could study for it or if your in a sport and your about to compete against another team then instead of taking drugs and getting disqualified you should practice until you are one of the best players in your team. Cheating just shows that your immature and you don't know how to follow rules. Students or people in general may cheat because they feel pressure to win something.

For example, if your a teenage girl and you mess around and get pregnant then that can cause difficulties for your future. Your young and now its going to take a while for you to finish school and its going to be harder because you need to be taking care of the baby.

''Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly''  by Otto Graham, Jr. When you know something is wrong then you shouldn't do it even if you think it will benefit you. For example the video of the homeless man shows that you should do the right no matter what because if he would have exchanged the ring for 4 thousand dollars it wouldn't have been worth it because instead the kept the ring and the lady that owned it helped him get money because people wanted to donate. He also found his family and got reunited with them after 16 years and in my opinion that's way better than 4 thousand dollars. Every human being should know the difference between right or wrong. So whenever were in a situation when were tested to do the right then you should just do it. Because something great may come out of it. Making the right choices makes you feel good about yourself because you know that you could have done the wrong but you were being a smart person.

''Act well your part; there all honor lies'' by Alexander Pope This statement means that if your a good person and you make right choices then your honorable. Honor isn't something that you can get very easily, it is supposed to be earned. To earn honor you  just have to always do the right no matter what anyone says, and to never let anyone influence you to do the bad. If your an honorable person then you get respected by most people because they see that your trustworthy and mature to make your own choices. So always remember to do the right.

Valentines Day History         Valentines day is an old tradition thought to have originated from a Roman Festival known as Lupercalia. It was held on February 15 as a fertility festival dedicated to Faunus, the Roman God of agriculture.

The festival survived the initial rise of Christianity but was outlawed at the end of the 5th century when Pope Gelasius declared February 14 ST. Valentines day.

An account from the 1400's describes Valentine as a priest who was beheaded by Emperor Claudius for helping Christian couples wed. The emperor had banned marriage as he thought single men  made better soldiers. Valentine felt this was unfair so he cel

''Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for 'tis better to be alone than in bad company'' by George Washington You should only hang out with good quality people because they can help you become a better person. If your hanging out or being friends with people that do drugs, lie, steal, drink, and all that other stuff then they're not benefiting you at all. So there's no point for you to be talking to them. You might want to look cool because your doing stuff that you shouldn't be doing but at the end of the day your going to be the one that ends up affected.
