"Character is higher than intellect."

Ralph Waldo Emerson

Intellect will only get you so far in life but with character you will have friends. Depending on your character you will attract other people who usually have the same character. If you are a bad person then most of your friends are bad. the better person you are the more friends you will have and your enemy's will probable be the people who are the opposite of you. people will trust you if you are known for having good character. I have better character than intellect from what i think.

Student Success Statement

“They’re only truly great who are truly good.”

George Chapman

To be great you have to be good to yourself and others. You can’t be one without the other. If you want to be truly great then one thing is to help others in need. To be truly good you have to be honest and never lie. Some people consider themselves great but are not because they are not honest with everyone. In sports the referee has to be honest or you can't call it a fair game. the referee has to be neutral to both sides or one side will have a unfair advantage.

Student Success Statement

“Many think that the short term gain will be worth the long term pain, but it isn't. In addition, using steroids is cheating, and there is nothing worse in sports than a cheater. Don't do it.”

George Mitchell

If you cheat and win then you win for a short moment but the fact that you cheated will stay with you forever. The only way to stop the feeling of guilt is to confess what you did. If you win and don't cheat then you will always know that you won and did it fair. In sports when people cheat they usually use drugs that enhance their strength. When they do that they improve the chance to win but sometimes at the cost of there own life.
