Strong characters are brought out by change of situation, and gentle ones by permanence.
Richter, Jean Paul
Honor is the inner garment of the Soul; the first thing put on by it with the flesh, and the last it layeth down at its separation from it.
Akhenaton

Proverb
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
Football doesn't build character. It eliminates weak ones.
Royal, Darrell

Confucius
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, and riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character.

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
Character is the impulse reined down into steady continuance.
Parkhurst, Charles H.
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
Shakespeare, William
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
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
I have only got down on to paper, really, three types of people: the person I think I am, the people who irritate me, and the people I'd like to be.
Forster, Edward M.
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.

Schopenhauer, Arthur
One can easily judge the character of a person by the way they treat people who can do nothing for them.

Character is like the foundation of a house -- it is below the surface.
Character is formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Wealth stays with us a little moment if at all: only our characters are steadfast, not our gold.
Euripides
An excellent man, like precious metal, is in every way invariable; A villain, like the beams of a balance, is always varying, upwards and downwards, himself his own dungeon.
Pandita, Saskya
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Your character will be what you yourself choose to make it.
