Student example:

My Credo
I believe in the wisdom of elders,
the influence of peer pressure,
the importance of success,
the evil that exists in money,
the effectiveness of hard work,
dedication, courage, strength.

But the belief that you don't have to strive
for your goals is just outrageous.

I believe in the truth that will set you free,
I believe in love that will conquer all,
I believe in respect for others,
Courtesy, politeness, gratitude.

And I believe in the fact that tomorrow
isn't promised to you.
