“The best recreation is to do good.” -William Penn
This is an amazing statement. It is the right thing to do. If you do good then you feel good. If you do bad you feel bad. That is the expression that comes to me when I see this statement. If you ever want to do a recreational activity, you do a good deed. If you do a good deed, you will feel good. Maybe the deed you did to that person saved their life. Perhaps you will be rewarded for doing good. As long as you do good, you will feel good.

“Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even when everyone is for it.” - William Penn
This is a fantastic statement by William Penn. This tells us that even if everyone is for something bad, it still is bad. If everyone is against something right, it is still right. For example, if everyone in the school loved to do drugs and all agreed on keeping it in the school, it is bad. That is not the right thing to do and shame on those who think it is good. Now if everyone in the United States voted for Trump it would be wrong. It is a bad thing that everyone thinks is good. If everyone declined the opportunity to be a CTR person it is being against the right. Which no one should ever do. You should always be for the right and not the wrong.

“ A good name is better than anything you can achieve in this life” - Mike Krzyzewski
(Coach K)
This is an important statement. This shows we should be good people 24/7. Coach K says having a good name is better than winning an Olympic gold medal then it must be true. This man has achieved more than a lot of people in the world. We as students should follow this positive influence. The influence is to be a CTR person. To always have a good name for ourselves. We should always aim to be better people. Stay away from drugs and alcohol. We must be CTR people at all times, even in our sleep.

"What you are as a person is far more important than what you are as a basketball player".
                                                                                                                   - John Wooden
This is a great statement. This inspires people to know that who they are is more important than their reputation. What you do regardless the profession is not as important as who you are inside. If you are a good person but a horrible basketball player than it's okay because your personality backs you up and you will be remembered as a good person. When you are a good basketball player but a horrible person you will be remembered as a cruel person. No one should go as a bad person. Choose the right and be remembered as a great basketball player and person.

"True wealth is of the heart, not of the purse."
                                                             - Pathros
This is a great statement. This means that your heart has more value than your money. When you pass away you will be remembered for who you were, not the money you had. You can be rich but be remembered as cruel and have no one attend your funeral. You can be rich and generous and be remembered as a great person. You can even be an unsung hero. You help people and are never noticed. In the end though, you will be rewarded with that amazing feeling of choosing the right.
You must choose the right in order to have a heart of gold, and a wallet of faith. A wallet of faith means you may not have anything in your wallet physically, but spiritually you are the richest person in the world.

"When I do good, I feel good.
When I do bad, I feel bad" - Abraham Lincoln

When I do good on a test I've been studying really hard on I feel good.
When I fail a test that I studied really hard on I feel bad.
I remember I took a biology or physiology test I studied really hard for yet I failed. My final score was a nine out of twenty. I felt bad the whole day. Then I remember taking an English vocabulary test I thought I was going to fail because I did not study so hard. I ended up passing that test with twelve out of thirteen. I felt really good that day. When you choose the right like studying and staying focused you do good on tests and feel good. When you choose the wrong like not studying and doing drugs you do bad on a test and feel bad. You have to do good in order to feel good.
