“Every time I’ve done something that doesn’t feel right, it has ended up not being right.”

Mario Cuomo 

I think what Mario Cuomo means is that if you’re doing something that doesn’t feel right, you shouldn’t do it. It always ends up being wrong. If you get that gut feeling that what you’re doing is wrong, then it most likely is wrong. You could stop yourself from committing a mistake and having bad consequences. 

“Always do right.”
Mark Twain

I think what mark is trying to say is that the key to greatness is doing right. Doing what is right and being nice and not expecting anything in return. When you do the right things, good things will start happening to you. Doing wrong may just bring you consequences. It wont lead you anywhere. So I think he’s trying to tell people to be the best they can be and to be a good person. 

“When you tell one lie, it leads to another.”
Always speak the truth

Paul Hatch

When you tell one lie, it leads to another. I believe in this statement and it’s very true. Lying brings a lot of consequences. The first lie you tell the more you’re going to say. Especially if it’s a big lie and not a little white lie. Things escalate quick when you tell a big lie. There’s outcomes to the lies you first tell and then you have to tell more lies to cover it up. It is bad to lie to someone or something. You can always just say the truth. It is not so hard. Honesty makes you a better person. 

“ Decisions determine destiny.”
Thomas S. Monson


What the quote means to me is that every choice you make has an outcome and consequence. They lead to new opportunities and success or failure. I know some people believe their destiny is already done and planned but in reality you get to choose your own destiny and what kind of person you want to become. It’s up to you what you want your destiny to become by the decisions you make.
