" I would prefer even to fail with honor,
than win by cheating."
-Sophocles
 I think what this great philosopher  means is that, true honor means to always keep trying without everh giving up, because as soon as you cheat or give up, you lose all your honor, as a man, and as a person. Honor is the only thing that helps us, as humans, to be able to stay friends and respect eatch other. Without honor, this world would not be how it is right now. We would have many more wars every day, every year, and it would impact us so much.

"He who walks with the wise grows wise, but a companion of fools suffers harm."
-A proverb

I think what this means is that whoever you hang out with, is who you are going to become like. For example if you are a good kid, but you start hanging out with stoners and retards, you are going to become like on of them, eventually. On the other hand, if you hang out with kids who are always studying and being respectful, you will eventually be like them, smart and respectful. "Friends" have a great influence on you even if you don't notice it, but by the time you do, you will see how much you have changed, and it could be for good or bad, it all depends on your choices.

" You can't hire someone else to do your push-ups for you."
-Jim Rohn

I think what this great man means is that you HAVE to do your own things. You can't go all your life making other do people do what YOU have to do. That doesn't make sense, because when you truly are alone and you need to do something, its just going to be you having to do your own things, no one else. It is better to always do your own things so that you can become strong and versatile. At the end it is your life, not someone elses.

Student Success Statement
"Man's rise or fall, success or failure happiness or unhappiness depends on his attitude... a man;s attitude will create the situation he imagines."
-James Allen

I think what this wise man means is that however you imagine the situation, that is what the outcome will be. For example, if you are always pessimist, at the end, everything will go wrong, and no one will enjoy it. On the other hand if you are always an optimist, you will find that the outcomes will always come out like you imagined them to be, happy and joyous. It all depends on how you deal with things.
