Without an acquaintance with the rules of propriety, it is impossible for the character to be established.
Confucius

As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. [Proverbs 23:7]

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

Character development is the aim of education.
O'Shea

6.
All men are alike in their lower natures; it is in their higher characters that they differ.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Gill, Vince

Character is the result of a system of stereotyped principles.
Hume, David

It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate -- to surmount every difficulty by resolution and contrivance.

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.

Faced with crisis, the man of character falls back on himself. He imposes his own stamp of action, takes responsibility for it, makes it his own.
Gaulle, Charles De

13.
Character is not made in a crisis -- it is only exhibited.
Freeman, Robert

14.
Everyone has three characters, that which they exhibit, that which they have, and that which they think they have.
Karr, Alphonse

Character is that which reveals moral purpose, exposing the class of things a man chooses or avoids.
Aristotle

16.
One can acquire everything in solitude - except character.
Marie Henri Beyle

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

18.
There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Hay, Colin

19.
My father told me that if you saw a man in a Rolls Royce you could be sure he was not a gentleman unless he was the chauffeur.
Arran, Earl of

20.
A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.
Hall, Manly

21.
You don't get in life what you want; you get in life what you are.
Brown, Les

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

23.
To succeed is nothing -- it's an accident. But to feel no doubts about oneself is something very different: it is character.
Leneru, Marie

24.
The higher character a person supports the more they should regard their smallest actions.

25.
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

26.
We don't love qualities, we love persons; sometimes by reason of their defects as well as of their qualities.
Maritain, Jacques

27.
You can tell the character of every man when you see how he receives praise.
Seneca

28.
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
Hepburn, Katharine

29.
Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open.
Elmer G. Letterman

30.
As fire when thrown into water is cooled down and put out, so also a false accusation when brought against a man of the purest and holiest character, boils over and is at once dissipated, and vanishes and threats of heaven and sea, himself standing unmoved.
Cicero, Marcus T.

31.
Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.
Disraeli, Benjamin

32.
Weakness of character is the only defect which cannot be amended.
La Rochefoucauld, Francois De

33.
Character is victory organized.
Bonaparte, Napoleon

Character is always lost when a high ideal is sacrificed on the altar of conformity and popularity.

35.
Character is the indelible mark that determines the only true value of all people and all their work.
Marden, Orison Swett

36.
If you stand straight, do not fear a crooked shadow.
Proverb, Chinese

37.
Nothing marks the character of a young man more than failure.

38.
Judge of your natural character by what you do in dreams.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

39.
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

40.
When about to commit a base deed, respect thyself, though there is no witness.
Ausonius, Decimus Magnus

41.
Character, in great and little things, means carrying through what you feel able to do.

James, William

The only way to compel men to speak good of us is to do it.
Voltaire

Good character is like a rubber ball -- thrown down hard -- it bounces right back. Good reputation is like a crystal ball -- thrown for gain -- shattered and cracked.
Linall Jr. A. L.

Richard Greenberg
