"Character is higher than intellect."
Quote by Ralph Waldo Emerson

I agree with Ralph. Character is more important than intellect. You can be the smartest man but character is what truly makes a person. If you are greedy but smart people wont like you. For example Marvin Williams was fouled out and instead of getting all mad he just went to the bench got 5 cups of water and gave it to each of his team mates because they were about to go in. Roy Williams, head coach of the basketball team of the University of North Carolina, saw his good character and he wanted him on his team. Marvin Williams then went to the UNC and become a good player and now plays in the NBA for the Charlotte Hornets. Character is always higher than intelligence and riches.

SSS- Be True

"I am not bound to win, but i am bound to be true.  must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while his is right, and part with him when he is wrong." Quote by Abraham Lincoln I see Abraham and his point in this quote. He isn't bound to win but he is bound to be honest and true. True can have many definitions and it can be a verb, adverb, and an adjective. True can mean honest and loyal. Lincoln is bound to be honest and loyal than to win. If you are bound to win at least do it with truth. Win with loyalty and honesty. You can win a game by cheating but its better to be true because then bad things may happen to you too. For example we played a school a couple weeks ago and the coach from the other school wasn't really playing fair and they won and later that day he texted our coach and told him that we won the game that he wasn't being honest. The coach from the school did something good by saying the truth and being true. I res

"Develop the attitude of gratitude" Quote by Thomas S. Monson This quote by Thomas S. Monson is something everyone should do. The attitude of gratitude would give you a good reputation and will make you look like a good person saying thank you for things and being a kind person. The feeling when you do something good for someone is a good feeling, it makes you feel good and it could make your day. If you do something good it might come back to you for example if you find a wallet that a man just dropped he will be thankful and you will feel good and not only make you feel good but something good happens to you too like maybe finding money on the floor. Its always good to say thank you to someone.

SSS- Football Posts

"In life as in football, you wont go far, unless you know where the goalposts are." Quote by Arnold H. Glasgow I agree with this quote by Arnold H. Glasgow. This quote relates from football to real life. In football you have offense and defense and in offense you must know where the goalpost is to score a field goal (3 pts.) or a touchdown (6 pts.). If you go the opposite way you will make it easier for the defense. The goalpost would be you're goal and you are the offense and the people trying to stop you from making it to your goal are the defense. You must pass every one to score/achieve your goal. This can go for every sport because you must know where you have to score (your goal). There will always be a defense trying to stop you from scoring or getting to your goal and you must either "juke" them to get there. You always have to have high goals and challenge yourself to achieve more. For example for football we workout and I max out 155 lbs in
