“True Independence and freedom can only exist in doing what it right.” Brigham Young Brigham Young lived by a code of conduct in which we should all follow. One of his statements included this wonderful quote. This quote is telling us that true freedom and independence can only come from doing right. Happiness can only come to us if we choose to do what is right. Choosing what is right leads you to have independence and freedom as you will never feel guilt. No negative consequences will come to you and so you have freedom to do what you want. You will have no burdens or other problems, which leads to a stress free life. On the contrary, if you choose to do bad you will have negative consequences come to you. Negative impacts such as jail can come from doing bad, and by being in jail or detention or something similar, you are limiting your freedom. So in order to avoid these bad consequences, it is important to always choose the right, as Brigham Young states .

“Many think that the short term pain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn’t. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports that a cheater. Don’t do it” George Mitchell This quote ties in great with our previous quote of, do not cheat. Cheating is bad and only comes with negative consequences. After cheating you will affect everyone around you not just yourself. It will have a negative impact on those people, on your reputation and on your mental health. After cheating, although you may not get caught at first, you will be filled with guilt and you will not be able to think clearly. Cheating always comes back, the truth always finds a way to reveal itself. That why it is always best to choose to be honest. Cheating, weather it be in a relationship, sports, or a test, it is bad in every form and it causes nothing but trouble to you and everyone else involved. An example of this quote can be seen in sports. If a person is caught using steroi

“I won't cheat” This quote is pivotal in being a ctr person. Cheating is something that is looked down by many. Cheating gets you nowhere, it just makes other people think less of you. Whether it is on homework or a relationship, cheating is bad in all forms and ways. It is a form of a lying, and like lying it leads into a path of being ctw. Instead of cheating, the exact opposite should be done and that is being honest. As the saying goes, honesty is the best policy. You can not do right and feel wrong it's impossibles, as Ezra Taft Benson tells us. The same principle applies to cheating , you can not cheat and feel good it is not possible either. Cheating always comes back and gets you at the end of the day. There are various forms of cheating such as on a test or taking drug enhancements, but at the end of the day the person is going to get caught. If they do not get caught, they will be filled with guilt.

“ Great beauty, great strength, and great riches are really and truly of no great use; a right heart exceeds all” -Benjamin Franklin Benjamin Franklin was spot on with this quote. If a person has only looks they will get nowhere in life. People may be attracted to them but ultimately they will be repulsed by them due to their rotten personalities. A person may be strong but that does not mean they could have full power. They could physically strong but if they are emotional weak they will get no where either. Also sometimes they may have a lot of power but are greatly dislike by others. Lastly a person may have all the riches in the world but even so they may still be sad. Money cannot buy happiness as the saying goes. A person may have wealth but they could still be lonely inside or miserable. The greatest trait a person could hold is a good heart. People will not view the external side of you but rather the inside and how you are. People will like you for who you are, not becau

“It may make a difference to all eternity whether we do right or wrong today” -James Freeman Clarke This quote is telling us that all of our actions have a consequence. If we choose to do a good action then our results will be good. If we choose a bad action our results will be negative. The consequences that come out of the action will have a long lasting effect on us. Even small things can have an impact on us. People may change their view on us if we do something wrong. We really do not know what actions will make a huge impact and which ones will be small. Since we do not know, it is always best to choose the right. That way, if our choice does make a big impact, then we will have a big positive result. Our actions make up our future. If we want a good future we need to create it ourselves, and in order to do that we need to Choose The Right ®.

“Ask yourself is it right or wrong and act accordingly” Otto Graham, Jr. This quote deeply resembles our CTR class motto. It is a key aspect and the main component to being a CTR person. Everyday we are faced with a multitude of choices. Some of these choices are good and others bad. The point of the matter is we always have a choice to do what we want. We can either go left or we could right. Before making any choice, this is where this quote plays a role. We must first ask ourselves is it right or is it wrong. If the answer is that it is right, then we should go ahead and do it. If the answer is that it is wrong, then we should not go ahead with our action as it may hurt others or ourselves. By following this quote, we can guarantee that we will always choose the right path. It should not be difficult to make a decision between right and wrong. We ourselves always know what is right and what is wrong and we have the power to choose what path we take. An example of this quote w

“Act Well your part; there all honor lies.” Alexander Pope What alexander pope is saying is that we should be good. Acting well, will have thing come to us in a honorable way. Acting well is a key to success. There is no honor in being a bad person. You can not do wrong and fell right. It is impossible to do so, as one of our other quote mentions.

It is our duty to influence those around us into doing good. The way we influence others is by doing good ourselves. An example of having no honor is seen by the jackie Robinson Little League Team, from Chicago Illinois. They went on to become U.S champions and ranked 2nd in the world, but they did it by cheating. There was no honor in that and as a result they were stripped from their title and no receive no respect from anyone.
