"Right is right only when entire."

Victor Hugo

Reflection: 

What I think this quote means by Victor Hugo is that when you do something right it has to be entirely correct. For example, when you lie to someone to spare there feeling you think it's the right thing to do but its not. Another example, is if you do something good for others its not all completely right if you don't actually mean it.

What i think this quote by Arnold H. Glasgow means is you wont reach places you want in life if you don't know what your goals are. When you don't know where the goalposts are you don't really know where your scoring. The same as life you would be wandering if you didn't set up your goals so you can reach them.

Naismith was given 14 days to create an indoor game that would provide an “athletic distraction”. It had to not take up much room, could help its track athletes to keep in shape.  Make it fair for all players and not to rough.

The peach baskets didn’t have a whole at the bottom so the game had to be temporarily paused and someone got a ladder and retrieved the ball.
