Best Quotes about Character

1.
While an original is always hard to find, he is easy to recognize.
Mason, John L.

2.
To succeed is nothing, it's an accident. but to feel no doubts about oneself is something very different: it is character.
Marie Leneru

3.
I have often thought the best way to define a man's character would be to seek out the particular mental or moral attitude in which, when it comes upon him, he felt himself most deeply and intensely active and alive. At such moments there is a voice inside which speaks and says: This is the real me!.
James, William

4.
Character cannot be developed in ease and quiet. Only through experiences of trial and suffering can the soul be strengthened, vision cleared, ambition inspired and success achieved.
Keller, Helen

5.
We should be too big to take offense and too noble to give it.
Lincoln, Abraham

6.
I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.
King Jr. Martin Luther

7.
Though intelligence is powerless to modify character, it is a dab hand at finding euphemisms for its weaknesses.
Crisp, Quentin

8.
Show me the man you honor, and I will know what kind of a man you are. It shows me what your ideal of manhood is, and what kind of a man you long to be.
Carlyle, Thomas

Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

10.
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.

11.
Character is to man what carbon is to steel.
Hill, Napoleon

12.
Strong feelings do not necessarily make a strong character. The strength of a man is to be measured by the power of the feelings he subdues not by the power of those which subdue him.
William Carleton

13.
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

You can tell a lot about a fellow's character by his way of eating jelly beans.
Reagan, Ronald

Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.
Disraeli, Benjamin

Forster, Edward M.

Too often the strong, silent man is silent only because he does not know what to say, and is reputed strong only because he has remained silent.
Churchill, Winston

24.
Everyone has the obligation to ponder well his own specific traits of character. He must also regulate them adequately and not wonder whether someone else's traits might suit him better. The more definitely his own a man's character is, the better it fits him.
Cicero

Chesterfield, Lord

Milton, John

48.
Clear conscience never fears midnight knocking.
Proverb, Chinese

49.
Few persons are made of such strong fiber that they will make a costly outlay when surface work will pass as well in the market.
Bounds, E. M.

50.
A man with a so-called character is often a simple piece of mechanism; he has often only one point of view for the extremely complicated relationships of life.
Strindberg, J. August
