Best Quotes about Character
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.
You are not very good if you are not better than your best friends imagine you to be.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar
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

A man without ethics is a wild beast loosed upon this world.
Hall, Manly
If a man character is to be abused there's nobody like a relative to do the business.
Thackeray, William M.
The only way to compel men to speak good of us is to do it.
Voltaire
A man never discloses his own character so clearly as when he describes another s.
Richter, Jean Paul
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
A person reveals his character by nothing so clearly as the joke he resents.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
Few people can distinguish the genuinely good from the reverse.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
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.
Personality can open doors, but only character can keep them open.

Eliot, George
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
Surmounting difficulty is the crucible that forms character.
Robbins, Anthony
Character is always lost when a high ideal is sacrificed on the altar of conformity and popularity.
Nothing marks the character of a young man more than failure.
Those who cross the sea change only the climate, not their character.
Horace
You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.

Old age and sickness bring out the essential characteristics of a man.
Frankfurter, Felix
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
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
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus
Wealth stays with us a little moment if at all: only our characters are steadfast, not our gold.
Euripides
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
