“My basic principle is that you don’t make decisions because they are easy; you don’t make them because they are cheap; you don’t make them because they are popular; you make them because they’re right.”

By: Theodore Hesburgh

What I can understand from this is that I can easily see that people who choose to do right don’t always do it because it will benefit them. He says that not every good deed is easy to make and that it isn’t always the cheapest. Sometimes it is not convenient to be good but you still feel like you need to do good. This means that when people do good it’s not always for a selfish reason. Sometimes good deeds need to be done with a good heart. An example can be cleaning a park. You can clean a park but it’s going to be painful for your back and it’s time consuming. It is then when you look and realize that it is not always easy to be good. People who do this often do it  out of the goodness of their hearts. Then there are those people who can not do good deeds for the life of the. They might think it's too much work to be nice. I believe that when a person is truly  nice it’s because they want to do good regardless of the cost. The outcome is good enough.
