“A promise must never been broken.”

By: Alexander Hamilton

Alexander Hamilton is telling us to never break a promise if we promised then why should we break them? When we keep promises then we can be trusted to other people. If we break promises then we are doing bad because a promise is a promise and that can’t be broken. Promises are for us to keep and not to break there are many people who break the promises but that only leads us to choosing the wrong. When we choose the wrong then we break our promises and don’t care about them. But we actually have to care about the consequences we will receive for breaking our promises. For example if we break our promises then we will have negative consequences that we wouldn't like. On the other hand if we always keep our promises then we will have positive results and we would be happy. If we make a promise to stop eating chips then we should keep that promise because now it doesn’t only make us look bad but we put our health in risk and that is bad because you can get very sick.

“Associate yourself with men of good quality if you esteem your own reputation;  for ‘its better to be alone than in bad company.”-By: George Washington

                          

This quote is telling us to get involved with the people who can benefit us instead of being with bad friendships, What I mean is that many of us don’t know who we are getting involved with or sometimes we just want to be with them because they are cool but that isn’t the point. We need to find people who can make us better and motivate us in a good way. The people we surround ourselves with are the image to the people because he way they act eventually you will be like them. If we hang out with good people then we will be known for the good qualities and the benefits we will have later on. On the other hand if we have those bad friends we will be known as them and people may want to stay away from us because they believe we are just like how they are. George Washington may be saying this because he might have experienced an event like this and he would like us to not follow that path. If he didn’t experience it then he might have had seeing this happen with other people and he didn’t like it. For example if we are hanging with the wrong crowd then we will turn out just like them because they influence us to do the bad, But if we are certain about moving forward then we have to get friendships with people who do encourage us and will benefit us for the better.
