Motivational Quotes
Character
What you possess in the world will be found at the day of your death to belong to someone else. But what you are will be yours forever.
Best Quotes about Character
Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
In attempts to improve your character, know what is in your power and what is beyond it.
Francis Thompson
No artist work is so high, so noble, so grand, so enduring, so important for all time, as the making of character in a child.
Cushman, Charlotte Saunders
Temperance is a tree which as for its root very little contentment, and for its fruit calm and peace.
Buddha
The hell to be endured hereafter, of which theology tells, is no worse than the hell we make for ourselves in this world by habitually fashioned our characters in the wrong way.
James, William
It isn't the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog, that counts.
Howell, Harry
I could never think well of a man's intellectual or moral character, if he was habitually unfaithful to his appointments.
Nathaniel Emmons
Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are, to some extent, a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece-by thought, choice, courage and determination.
Luther, John
During my eighty-seven years, I have witnessed a whole succession of technological revolutions. But none of them has done away with the need for character in the individual or the ability to think.
Baruch, Bernard M.
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 matters; leadership descends from character.
Limbaugh, Rush
If an ass goes traveling it will not come home a horse.
Proverb
It is better for the development of character and contentment to do certain things badly for yourself than to have them done better for you by someone else.
Character is like the foundation of a house -- it is below the surface.
Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open.
Elmer G. Letterman
Our character is basically a composite of our habits. Because they are consistent, often unconcious patterns, they constantly, daily, express our character
Covey, Stephen R.
We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.
Thoreau, Henry David
Character is our destiny.
Heraclitus
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
Character is the impulse reined down into steady continuance.
Parkhurst, Charles H.
It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate -- to surmount every difficulty by resolution and contrivance.
Jefferson, Thomas
How difficult it is to save the bark of reputation from the rocks of ignorance.
Petrarch, Francesco
Between ourselves and our real natures we interpose that wax figure of idealizations and selections which we call our character.
Lippmann, Walter
I would rather be adorned by beauty of character than jewels. Jewels are the gift of fortune, while character comes from within.
Plautus, Titus Maccius
Character is that which reveals moral purpose, exposing the class of things a man chooses or avoids.
Aristotle
The character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus
It is with trifles and when he is off guard that a man best reveals his character.
Schopenhauer, Arthur
There is never a better measure of what a person is than what he does when he is absolutely free to choose.
Bulger, William M.
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Underneath this flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.
Oscar Levant
If you create an act, you create a habit. If you create a habit, you create a character. If you create a character, you create a destiny.
Maurois, Andre
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
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
Put more trust in nobility of character than in an oath.
Solon
The formation of one's character ought to be everyone's chief aim.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
Men of genius are admired, men of wealth are envied, men of power are feared; but only men of character are trusted.
Integrity has no need of rules.
Camus, Albert
Men show their characters in nothing more clearly than in what they think laughable.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Hay, Colin
Character is formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
The superior man will watch over himself when he is alone. He examines his heart that there may be nothing wrong there, and that he may have no cause of dissatisfaction with himself.
Confucius
Sometimes people carry to such perfection the mask they have assumed that in due course they actually become the person they seem.
W. Somerset Maugham
Character is a by-product; it is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Wilson, Woodrow T.
You must regulate your life by the standards you admire when you are at your best.
Thomas, John M.
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
Shakespeare, William
You can preach a better sermon with your life than with your lips.
Goldsmith, Oliver
Forming characters! Whose? Our own or others? Both. And in that momentous fact lies the peril and responsibility of our existence.
Elihu Burritt
Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.
Michener, James A.
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
