STUDENT SUCCESS STATEMENT

''Intelligence is not enough. Intelligence plus character, that is the goal of true education.''- Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. 

True education is not that of what you know, but of intelligence and morals. If you are a good person that is an automatic plus. However it takes both factors in a person to reach a peak of success. Being an educated person is essential on its own. But, what good would that be if you have no good character. You can be a genius but be a very disrespectful person. That wont do. You have to be good, then that is when you reach the right goal. If you wish to have character, then be truly educated. Hold intelligence and good morals within you.

That is the only feeling apart from all others. That sense of well being will not be caused by any thing else. Reward over moral is a great prize.

While it mat be true that poverty can eventually be overcome, many out there do work hard and give it their all at what they do yet they still do not escape. There are two ways to work hard at something. Sometimes you get what you want, other times things remain the same. This quote can not always be held true. There is a key element that breaks this from being true, education. You can work hard all you want but not go far because of lack of an education. Without education your efforts will mean nothing. Education can be in many forms. Education is the real key to success, without it efforts will not do much good. At times poverty is not a choice, lack of education will forever hold a family down. While some may be lucky to mov...
