  1. i think that gandhi says oh okay you want to be this ....then it must be something that not neccessarily you think the world needs but you can contribute to it. albert means the obvious thing that you make choices and they are part of your life. they become your life. these quotes don't really seem similar they seem related cause they are sorta talking of the same thing.These quotes are different because they don't mean to send the same message. These quotes matter because they apply to people who read it, well not only to them but to everyone but they make onbe reflection on what they're life has been and whatnot.

  2. 1. It says that life is what you make it and your choices are what make lifes outcome. It say that what ever you want to change in the world you have to be the one to make it happen.
    2. they are similar because they both tell about how you somehow can make a change in life.
    3. There different because one is saying that your choices make life or your future and the other say that you have to make the change your self.
    Another difference is that they mean to different things coming from two different people.
    4. They matter because you as a person should know that you should be able to change yo life and sometimes its never to late to change. Another reason this matters is because if you want a big change in the world nobody could do it the way you want it but you so you have to try to make the big change. i ca apply this to my life because all my decisions and choices now reflect on how my future is going to look when i get older.

  4. - In my opinion quote one is saying your how life is based on the choices you make , you have the power to control your future by the choices you make. In my opinion quote two is saying if you want to make the world a better place , take a look in the mirror and make a change.
    -These two quotes are similar because they both are talking about what the future can be like depending on the person you are. These two quotes are different because quote on is talking about the power you have to create YOUR future , quote two is talking about the power you have to change the WORLDS future.
    -I can apply quote one to my life by making good decisions and deciding how i want my future to be ; i can apply quote two to my life by making better choices and helping out the community to help the world become a better place in the future.

  5. 1. Quote number 1 says that your life is all the decisions you have ever made. Quote number 2 says that if you want something to change you must change yourself first.
    2. These quotes are similar because they both talk about choices.
    3. These quotes are different because the first one talks about life choices. The second one abbout choices you make.
    4. The first quote matters because life is really just made up of the choices you make in life. I can apply this to my life because I'll think better about the decisions I make because I know these decisions are my life.
    The second quote matters because if you really want something to change you should change yourself first. I can apply this to my life because if I want something to change I should change first then try to change everyone else.

  6. 1. Quote#1: The quote says that the choices you make will determine how your life will come out to be.
    Quote#2: The quote says that if you want to see a change in the world you have to make it yourself.

    2. These quotes are similar because they both have to do with life ad the decisions/changes you make to make it better for you and your people.

    3. These quotes are different because one quote is specifically talking about the changes you should make to help the world. And, the other is talking about the choices you make in your life that is basically determining how your life will come out.

    4. These quotes matter because i can understand them. The decisions you make do determine how your life will come out. If you make dumb decisions you will have a dumb future. But, if you make smart and wise decisions you will most likely succeed.

  8. 1.) Quote 1 says that in life you gonna have a lot of choices.Quote 2 says that in order to see a change in the world you need to make the difference.
    2.)They are similar because they both talk about life.
    3.)They both are different because #1 talks about choices and #2 talks about changes.
    4.)I can apply this to my life because sometimes i say that their not a lot of choices in my life but the truth is that their is a lot of choices in my life. Life is what brings us the choices we have now. Also, i think that changes are important because their are still people waiting for changes. But what i say why do people want changes and they don't try to do something about it.

    2. These quotes are similar because they both to relate on what you do and what choices you choose in life.
    3. These quotes are different because one quote says that life is the sum up of all your choices and it means that every choice you have done determines your life. The second quote says to make a specific change in life if you think it's a problem.
    4. This quote matters because every single choice you choose will determine how everyone will treat you and who you will be in life. Making a Change in life will make your life easier and better.

  10. Number one is saying life is the total of all your decisions.What you choose to do is going to be your outcome.
    Number two is saying the only change your going to get is the changes you willing to make.How you wanna she it is how you should start making your wishes come true.
    These quotes are different only in the sense of Number one is telling you that the way your life is is part of all the choices you made.Number two is different because its telling you you need to change to see the world how you want to.
    This matters because all my bad decisions is reflected on my future.My bad income will make a worst outcome.If i feel something needs change i need to work at it and do what i can do to change what ever it is.

  11. 1. Quote #1 says that everything you coose its your choice you chooses in life. Quote #2 says you should change how you want your future to be.
    2. This two quotes are similar because they both deal with life.
    3. The quotes are different because one says how life adds up to your choices. The other one says that you should be one of the people who we have to depend on in the future. Also in our generation the word will revolve around us.
    4. This matters because when we get over younger people will look up to us. In other words in our generation will be based on our future and young ones will have to look toward our future so they will know what to do to make it better. We can apply this to life by putting our future in our hands and showing a better example on living and making the right choices so the little ones can have an idea.

  12. --#1 Is saying that whatever the things are that you do, they have a specific outcome as to what they should or shouldn't amount to.
    --#2 Is saying that in order to fix something you must first, stop complaining about the have and have- nots of the world, look at yourself then think about what should change first you or them?
    --Both of the quotes are similar because they both express beliefs and saying that express to others a feeling of no doubt. if its something that you want of this world then the only way that you can get it is to change you, or differ your ways.
    -- These quotes are different however because the first one applies to you and your goals and aspirations you have for yourself. While the second one infers that in order for other things and aspects of the life you live, and the world you live that life in you have to change if you expect them to as well. How can you dare to ask someone/something else to change their ways if you cant change yours?
    --These quotes matter to me for several reasons. I feel as though if I'm going to make it in this world then I have to be prepared to look at my resources and accessories that I am given, do the math, see what comes up. If it's not what I expected then some type of division went wrong when dividing my effort and time into something spectacular. If I want racism to be completely gone and forgotten then I need to stop disrespecting people, not saying that i do, just a example. I can't sit and wait for the world to bow down to my feet, when I haven't tied someone else shoes. When I look at someone else and see that they have the world n their hands, how can I get there? How can I get to the places that they have?..... Look at me, and see what I have, see where I've gotten, now what do you think?

  15. #1 is saying that you are the decisions you make either good or bad.
    #2 is saying that you must make a change to make the world change.

    These quotes are similar because they both talk about making decisions that change your life and the world.

    These quotes are different because you might not want to change the world.Also your choices might not affect every one.

    They matter because you need to change to make a change in the world.Also your choices do make a change to the world.If you make good choices the world will be better but if you make bad choices the world will be more bad.If you really want to make a difference don't just sit there saying you wish the world would be different.You have to make a choice to do something or just sit there.If you don't try to make a difference the world will be the way it is.

  16. 1)i think that this say that your life is always going to be the same if you don't do something about it.I think that number 2 say that you can wish on something to happen but you got to do something for it can happen.

    2) I think that these quotes are similar because they talking about how you can't hope on something to happen you always got to do something for something good to happen.

    3) They are different because one talking about your life got something to do with the choices that you make, and the other one talk about you can't wish on something to happen.

    4) I think that these quotes matter because you always got to think be for you do something and make the right thing.
