Student Success Statement
“He listens well who takes notes.”
Dante Alighieri

This is an amazing quote by Dante Alighieri. Those who listen well and take notes are the ones that will prosper and efficiently gain knowledge. When you listen and take notes you are better able to comprehend what you just learned and memorize it for later use. Notes are crafted for the purpose of writing down what you are learning (either in a visual or auditory manner) and there are many aspects that can affect your comprehension such as legibility, abundance of important information, etc. Those who are ultimately good listeners will take the best notes and therefore many are considered diligent which will lead them to obtain and comprehend an endless amount of knowledge.

“To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice.”
Confucius

Confucius is establishing an amazing subject in this extraordinary quote. If you know that what has to be done is the correct thing to doing a certain situation and that it is your responsibility to do it then you should, but if you do not then you are the worst of the cowards. Individuals who exhibit cowardice are only exhibiting this because they are afraid of responsibility which makes them even worse than a coward. Once the individual experiences a situation in where they do have to take responsibility for their actions then will they comprehend the values of responsibility.

Student Success Statement
“Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices.” - Albert A. Montapert

This is magnificent statement by Albert A. Montapert. No one can ever commit an action without a consequence being manifested by the action “what goes around comes around.” When our judgment and moral sense are clouded by greed and evil ambitions we ignore the consequence(s) that accompany. Any and I mean any action no matter how miniscule or tremendous will always manifest a consequence often mirroring the proportion of the action. A few weeks ago my friend was talking about how he did not complete his homework and how he was going to complete it during advisory. What my friend did not understand was by not completing his homework he will now have to complete it in advisory and he might not comprehend the subject that well. Consequences can either benefit or affect the individual and will always manifest themselves no matter what the action may be.
