As much as I enjoy reading factual information in our text, reading these quotes was very interesting. I enjoy changing up the reading. One qoute I could relate to best was the one about treating others how you would want them to treat you. I can relate so easily to this qoute because throughout my childhood I attended a private Catholic school and I can remember reading this qoute all the time. The qoute would also be in the prayers we would say and when we went to church we would have to sing it in a song. I am really not very religious but I have been well educated in religion and out of all the prayers, sayings and beliefs I have learned about I believe this one to be true. If everyone treated people in a way that they would want to be treated we would have a much more peaceful world. I mean I do not think that anyone wants to steal from themselves or commet crimes against themselves. The world will never be perfect, but if more people treated others as they might want to be treated it would be a great step towards a better world for all.
“When I was teaching children I began every day writing this on the blackboard: "Do to others what you would like them to do to you", telling them how much better the world would be if everybody lived by this rule.”
