Best Quotes about Character
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus
The real character of a man is found out by his amusements.
Reynolds, Sir Joshua
Let us not say, every man is the architect of his own fortune; but let us say, every man is the architect of his own character.
Boardman, George D.
Integrity has no need of rules.
Camus, Albert
Temperance is simply a disposition of the mind which binds the passion.
Aquinas, St. Thomas
Reputation is only a candle, of wavering and uncertain flame, and easily blown out, but it is the light by which the world looks for and finds merit.
Lowell, James Russell
Nothing marks the character of a young man more than failure.
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
To succeed is nothing -- it's an accident. But to feel no doubts about oneself is something very different: it is character.
Leneru, Marie
Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
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
It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate -- to surmount every difficulty by resolution and contrivance.
Jefferson, Thomas
Therefore keep in the midst of life. Do not isolate yourself. Be among men and things, and among troubles, and difficulties, and obstacles.
Drummond, Henry
If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how -- the very best I can. And I mean to keep on doing it to the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me will not amount to anything. If the end brings me out all wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference.
Lincoln, Abraham
You must look into people, as well as at them.
Chesterfield, Lord
Men show their characters in nothing more clearly than in what they think laughable.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Pity the man who has a character to support --it is worse than a large family -- he is silent poor indeed.
Thoreau, Henry David
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
The best index to a person's character is (a) how he treats people who can't do him any good, and (b) how he treats people who can't fight back.
Buren, Abigail Van
The measure of a man's real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out.
Macaulay, Thomas B.
Character is a by-product; it is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Wilson, Woodrow T.
Character is to man what carbon is to steel.
Hill, Napoleon
Character in a saint means the disposition of Jesus Christ persistently manifested.
Chambers, Oswald
Judge of your natural character by what you do in dreams.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Character matters; leadership descends from character.
Limbaugh, Rush
It takes a great deal of character strength to apologize quickly out of one's heart rather than out of pity. A person must possess himself and have a deep sense of security in fundamental principles and values in order to genuinely apologize.
Covey, Stephen R.
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Gill, Vince
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
Character is made by many acts; it may be lost by a single one.
The higher character a person supports the more they should regard their smallest actions.
You can tell a lot about a fellow's character by his way of eating jelly beans.
Reagan, Ronald
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
Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.
Michener, James A.
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
While he was not as dumb as an ox, he was not any smarter either.
Thurber, James
Character is that which reveals moral purpose, exposing the class of things a man chooses or avoids.
Aristotle
You don't get in life what you want; you get in life what you are.
Brown, Les
Before you advise anyone Be yourself! reassess his character.
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
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.
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
The lord will not hold back the promises, even if the person who makes them is not worthy.
Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open.
Elmer G. Letterman
They attack the one man with their hate and their shower of weapons. But he is like some rock which stretches into the vast sea and which, exposed to the fury of the winds and beaten against by the waves, endures all the violence
Virgil
Wealth stays with us a little moment if at all: only our characters are steadfast, not our gold.
Euripides
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
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
Hepburn, Katharine
Character is the result of a system of stereotyped principles.
Hume, David
