Life .....

"I still find each day too short for all the thoughts I want to think, all the walks I want to take, all the books I want to read, and all the friends I want to see."

Environment .....

"Our environment, the world in which we live and work, is a mirror of our attitudes and expectations."

Knowledge .....

"Sharing knowledge is not about giving people something, or getting something from them. That is only valid for information sharing. Sharing knowledge occurs when people are genuinely interested in helping one another develop new capacities for action; it is about creating learning processes."

Perception .....

“Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough”

Achievement

"Achievement is not always success, while reputed failure often is. It is honest endeavor, persistent effort to do the best possible under any and all circumstances."

Plagiarism is a big deal, and it’s not something you want to find out about the hard way. It could get you dismissed from the university! Researching ethically is also researching efficiently: not only will you learn how to avoid plagiarism, but you’ll also pick up some good research tips too.

Vaughan Memorial Library, Acadia University, The Governors of Acadia University has made the tutorial about plagiarism and why it’s essential to start your research early.Also explains the difference between paraphrasing and quoting, and how to do both properly. When to cite, what to cite, and how to cite.
