"To know what is right and not to do it is the worst cowardice."
Confucius
What Confucius is saying is the biggest way you can be a coward is knowing what is right but not doing it. For example, you could see two people robbing someone. The right thing to do would be to call the cops to let them know but just walking away like nothing happened would make you the biggest coward ever. You should always do right no matter the circumstances.
Athletes Doing Good

There was a surveillance video showing 4 college athletes entering a store after closing hours. The first that comes to mind for many people is that they're going to rob the store, but that wasn't the case. It turns out the athletes didn't know that the store was closed. They said that the lights were on and the door was open. Instead of robbing the store they paid for there stuff and left (and by paid I mean they left the money on the counter). They even left the exact amount of change. I see this as a good change to everything else that's going on with college athletes.

"Start with what is right rather than what is acceptable"
Peter F. Drucker

I think what this quote is trying to say is that your conclusions or thoughts should always be right first. And that you should worry that its acceptable or not later on. Cause  its more important to have the right answer than an answer that's acceptable or not.
