“The best way to predict your future is to create it.”

Charles Ketterer

I believe that this statement is true because the best way for you to predict something is for you to make sure that you create the events leading up to your prediction. For example if you want to predict that in your future you want to go to college and graduate to be a teacher you have to create it by going to High school graduating and making sure you get accepted into college and then you have to make sure you get good grades to graduate and become a teacher.  

“Bless You”

“Bless You”

Whenever someone sneezes, you say “Bless You” or hear someone else say these words.

Why?

Because people used to believe that a sneeze would cause the soul to escape the body through the nose. So when they said “Bless You” it was a way to stop the devil from taking over the body. Another belief was that when someone sneezed their heart would momentarily stop and that saying “Bless You” was a way of welcoming the person back to life.

When?

It was first originated thousands of years ago by Romans and first entered the English language in the early part of the 20^th century, brought by German-speaking immigrants to the United States.

How?

The Romans would say "Jupiter preserve you" which meant "good health to you," and the Greeks would wish each other "long life." The phrase "God bless you" is attributed to Pope Gregory the Great, who uttered it in the sixth century during a bubonic plague epidemic.

Where?

Rome

“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation; for  ‘tis better to be alone than in bad company.”

George Washington

I think that this quote means that you should hang out with good people if you value the reputation and it’s better to be alone if you are going to hang out with bad people. For example you should hang out with friends who you know have a good reputation of doing their work and paying attention so they could help you have a have a better reputation and rub off on you but if you hang out with people who have bad reputations who don’t do their work and are disrespectful people will think of you as the same way even if you aren’t like that.

“Right is right only when entire”

Victor Hugo

I believe this quote is right because when you answer something right you will answer the other questions right because you don’t have to make up a lie for the other question you answer wrong. For example if you are asked did you read the book before the movie and you answer yes but in reality you didn’t you started answering wrong and then if they ask you a part from the book that you like then you would lie and describe a part that you saw in the movie. But if you answer right you won’t have to tell lie after lie.
