                    The reward for doing right is mostly an international phenomenon:
                                       self-respect, dignity, integrity and self-esteem.
                                                    Dr Laura Schlessinger
I think what Dr Laura Schlessinger is trying to say that your reward for doing something right doesn't always mean money or some sort of prize but it comes from the inside and how you feel.  Self-respect, dignity, integrity, and self-esteem those are all of your rewards that you get.

                                                            Victor Hugo
I think Victor Hugo is trying to say that you have to finished what you started no matter what. Lets say you were picking up trash and you left a couple and you already stopped because you thought that was enough well its still wouldn't be right because you didn't pick up all the trash so you would have to finish what you started which is pick up all the trash.

"That which we persist in doing becomes easier to do, not that the nature of the thing has changed but that our power to do has increased."
                                                               Ralph Waldo Emerson
I think Ralph Waldo Emerson is trying to say that in order to accomplish we need to keep having persistence in order to make that goal easier. Lets say you wanted to join a basketball team but you weren't  good of a player well if you keep on trying and trying basketball will seem much much easier and you will be on the basketball team.

                               "Your worth consists in what you are and not in what you have."
                                                          Thomas Edison, Inventor
I think Thomas Edison is trying to say that it doesn't matter how many cars you have, how big is your house, or how much money you have. If you got it all by lying, stealing, or fraud then it isn't worth that much in fact it's probably worth nothing but if you were are you are a kind, generous, and honest person then that will be worth more than anything a person owns that they stole or any other wrong thing they did.
