                                           Dean Smith

I think this quote means that you should do what is right and you should feel good about yourself  and might even sometimes get a reward form the people that you helped along over the years and they will appreciate everything you have done for them.

"CTR connects you to happiness and success. CTW disconnects you."

                                                         Mr. Haymore

I think this quote means that choosing the right will bring you happiness and you feel good about yourself because you chose the right but if you choose ctw or choosing the wrong that will not bring you happiness it will just make you feel bad about yourself because you chose the wrong so you should always choose the right. For example if you were to do drugs and you didn't stop you would be choosing the wrong and you would feel bad about yourself because drugs are bad  but choosing the right would be to stay away from drugs.

"Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all"
                                                                      Aristotle
I think this quote means that if you want to be truly educated and not just learn about it and actually not care about it that wouldn't really be learning education. You have to educate yourself in the heart to fully understand everything that you try to learn.

"Choosing the right is always the right thing to do."
Alex Linares
I think this quote means that you should always choose the right no matter what. There is no excuse or reason on why you should be choosing the wrong. For example if you saw people who were doing drugs and they told you to do some with them choosing the right would be to not do the drugs and stay away from them but choosing the wrong would be to do those drugs so you should always choose the right.
