Two Quotes that Chief Stone lives by :

"To know what is right and not do it is the worst cowardice. ~Confucius"

Character is doing the right thing when nobody's looking. There are too many people who think that the only thing that's right is to get by, and the only thing that's wrong is to get caught. ~J.C. Watts
