Best Quotes about Character
Testimony is like an arrow shot from a long bow and the force of it depends on the strength of the arm from which it was shot. Argument is like a bullet fired from a gun and has equal force even when issued from a child.
Property may be destroyed and money may lose its purchasing power; but, character, health, knowledge and good judgment will always be in demand under all conditions.
Babson, Roger

Solon
It is with trifles and when he is off guard that a man best reveals his character.
Schopenhauer, Arthur

Hermann Hesse
Not to be cheered by praise, not to be grieved by blame, but to know thoroughly ones own virtues or powers are the characteristics of an excellent man.
Pandita, Saskya
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.
Character develops itself in the stream of life.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

Keller, Helen
Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.

Lowell, James Russell
There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Hay, Colin
We falsely attribute to men a determined character -- putting together all their yesterdays -- and averaging them -- we presume we know them. Pity the man who has character to support -- it is worse than a large family -- he is the silent poor indeed.
Thoreau, Henry David

Brown, Les
You can preach a better sermon with your life than with your lips.
Goldsmith, Oliver
Character isn't something you were born with and can't change, like your fingerprints. It's something you weren't born with and must take responsibility for forming.
Rohn, Jim
Men show their character in nothing more clearly than what they think laughable.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.
Michener, James A.
It is well for the world that in most of us, by the age of thirty, the character has set like plaster, and will never soften again.
James, William
Though intelligence is powerless to modify character, it is a dab hand at finding euphemisms for its weaknesses.
Crisp, Quentin
The man who cannot believe in himself cannot believe in anything else. The basis of all integrity and character is whatever faith we have in our own integrity.
Smith, Roy L.
Be thou incapable of change in that which is right, and men will rely upon thee. Establish unto thyself principles of action; and see that thou ever act according to them. First know that thy principles are just, and then be thou
Akhenaton

Lebowitz, Fran
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, and riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character.
Greeley, Horace
I could never think well of a man's intellectual or moral character, if he was habitually unfaithful to his appointments.
