Best Quotes about Character

1.
A man never discloses his own character so clearly as when he describes another s.
Richter, Jean Paul

2.
Those who cross the sea change only the climate, not their character.
Horace

3.
Fame is what you have taken, character is what you give. When to this truth you awaken, then you begin to live.
Taylor, Bayard

In attempts to improve your character, know what is in your power and what is beyond it.
Francis Thompson

5.
If you stand straight, do not fear a crooked shadow.
Proverb, Chinese

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

7.
The lord will not hold back the promises, even if the person who makes them is not worthy.

8.
I appreciate people who are civil, whether they mean it or not. I think: Be civil. Do not cherish your opinion over my feelings. There's a vanity to candor that isn't really worth it. Be kind.
Richard Greenberg

9.
If all I'm remembered for is being a good basketball player, then I've done a bad job with the rest of my life.
Thomas, Isiah

10.
Underneath this flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.
Oscar Levant

11.
You can tell a lot about a fellow's character by his way of eating jelly beans.
Reagan, Ronald

12.
How difficult it is to save the bark of reputation from the rocks of ignorance.
Petrarch, Francesco

13.
Nothing marks the character of a young man more than failure.

14.
Between ourselves and our real natures we interpose that wax figure of idealizations and selections which we call our character.
Lippmann, Walter

15.
Too many lives are needed to make just one.
Montale, Eugenio

16.
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus

17.
Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
Abraham Lincoln

18.
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

19.
Surmounting difficulty is the crucible that forms character.
Robbins, Anthony

20.
It is not what he had, or even what he does which expresses the worth of a man, but what he is.
Amiel, Henri Frederic

21.
Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.
Sivananda, Sri Swami

22.
A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.
Hall, Manly

23.
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.
You must look into people, as well as at them.
Chesterfield, Lord

25.
Character, in great and little things, means carrying through what you feel able to do.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

26.
We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.
Thoreau, Henry David

27.
The depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves. People reveal themselves completely only when they are thrown out of the customary conditions of their life, for only then do they have to fall back on their reserves.
Trotsky, Leon

28.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation. Your character is what you really are while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
Wooden, John

29.
A good character is the best tombstone. Those who loved you, and were helped by you, will remember you when forget-me-nots are withered. Carve your name on hearts, and not on marble
Spurgeon, Charles Haddon

30.
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

31.
I have conquered an empire but I have not been able to conquer myself.
Peter The Great

32.
Wherever man goes to dwell his character goes with him.
Proverb, African

33.
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

34.
That which we call character is a reserved force which acts directly by presence, and without means. It is conceived of as a certain undemonstrable force, a familiar or genius, by whose impulses the man is guided, but whose counsels he cannot impart.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

35.
He that has light within his own clear breast may sit in the center, and enjoy bright day: But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts benighted walks under the mid-day sun;
Milton, John

36.
The character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.

37.
If a man character is to be abused there's nobody like a relative to do the business.
Thackeray, William M.

38.
One stumble is enough to deface the character of an honorable life.
Estrange, L.

39.
You can't go around hoping that most people have sterling moral characters. The most you can hope for is that people will pretend that they do.
Lebowitz, Fran

40.
Character is not made in a crisis -- it is only exhibited.
Freeman, Robert

41.
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

42.
While an original is always hard to find, he is easy to recognize.
Mason, John L.

43.

44.
Character matters; leadership descends from character.
Limbaugh, Rush

45.
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.

46.
Old age and sickness bring out the essential characteristics of a man.
Frankfurter, Felix
