Student Success Statement
"I am not bound to win, but I am bound to be true. I must stand with anybody that stands right, and stand with him while he is right, and part with him when he does wrong."- Abraham Lincoln
This quote means that whoever we stand with them, we see the positive things. Even if everything goes wrong we must stand for what's right. Not everyone wins and not everyone wins all the time. We are not perfect, no one is, which is why Lincoln said he is not bound or tied to win because it is not something we not do sometimes. Also he is saying that he deciding to have friends that do right and if they do wrong he will part from them. I think this is a good idea because if you hang out with bad influences then you will follow their example and do the same things as them. This is why we need to hang out with great positive people around us to not do something horrible or mean to anyone.
