“He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.”

Proverbs 13:20

Reflection:  This quote is very important because of the fact that this definitely speaks to a lot of people. It says that whoever walks with wise people will become wise but if you walk with fools you will become a fool. You can walk with wise people at school, home, the store, church anywhere but where there's good there is bad. An example would be if you hang out with people who like to study and do their school work then you will be doing your school work all the time and you will achieve many things. However, if you walk with people who like to smoke and like to do things they shouldn’t be doing then you will experience failure because you walked with fools. Another example would be if you walk with people who like to do things good without having to be told to do it then you will start to do good things without having your mom, dad or anybody telling you to do it. But if you socialize with those who want everything in their hand and they need someone to tell them to do something that they know they're supposed to do then you need to get away from them because then you will become just like them and that is something that is horrible. He who walks with the wise will become wise but those who walk with fools shall be destroyed.

“ A good name is rather to be chosen than great riches.”

Proverbs 22:1

Reflection: This is a very good and important quote because it tells us that we should always chose to have a good name. Instead of choosing riches and other things that are worth less than your name. An example is if someone goes to the bank and wants to check their balance and they have $200 but they only remember having $50 then that person should call the bank to ask what happened instead of keeping the money that may or may not have been somebody else’s. Another example would  be if you see someone drop their wallet and you don’t say anything and you take it your choosing riches over your good name. You need to always choose the right and choose to have a good name instead of choosing great wealth.
