Character Motivational Quotes



Best Quotes about Character

1.
The depth and strength of a human character are defined by its moral reserves. People reveal themselves completely only when they are thrown out of the customary conditions of their life, for only then do they have to fall back on their reserves.
Trotsky, Leon

2.
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

3.
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.

4.
Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson

5.
Too many lives are needed to make just one.
Montale, Eugenio

6.
To be fond of learning is near to wisdom; to practice with vigor is near to benevolence; and to be conscious of shame is near to fortitude. He who knows these three things
Confucius

7.
You must regulate your life by the standards you admire when you are at your best.
Thomas, John M.

8.
Noble character is best appreciated in those ages in which it can most readily develop.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

9.
The happiness of every country depends upon the character of its people, rather than the form of its government.
Haliburton, Thomas C.

10.
Everyone has three characters, that which they exhibit, that which they have, and that which they think they have.
Karr, Alphonse

11.
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

12.
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

13.
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

14.
Character is always lost when a high ideal is sacrificed on the altar of conformity and popularity.

15.
You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.
James A. Froude

16.
Keep in mind that the true measure of an individual is how he treats a person who can do him absolutely no good.
Landers, Ann

17.
Character matters; leadership descends from character.
Limbaugh, Rush

18.
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

19.
There is no greater index of character so sure as the voice.
Disraeli, Benjamin

20.
Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.
Shakespeare, William

21.
There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Hay, Colin

22.
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

23.
Fame is what you have taken, character is what you give. When to this truth you awaken, then you begin to live.
Taylor, Bayard

24.
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.

25.
Character in a saint means the disposition of Jesus Christ persistently manifested.
Chambers, Oswald

26.
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

27.
Character - the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life - is the source from which self respect springs.
Joan Didion

28.
Testimony is like an arrow shot from a long bow and the force of it depends on the strength of the arm from which it was shot. Argument is like a bullet fired from a gun and has equal force even when issued from a child.

29.
Those who cross the sea change only the climate, not their character.
Horace

30.
Our character...is an omen of our destiny, and the more integrity we have and keep, the simpler and nobler that destiny is likely to be.
George Santayana

31.
The real character of a man is found out by his amusements.
Reynolds, Sir Joshua

32.
You are not very good if you are not better than your best friends imagine you to be.
Lavater, Johann Kaspar

33.
Character is a by-product; it is produced in the great manufacture of daily duty.
Wilson, Woodrow T.

34.
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

35.
We know but a few men, a great many coats and breeches.
Thoreau, Henry David

36.
Forming characters! Whose? Our own or others? Both. And in that momentous fact lies the peril and responsibility of our existence.
Elihu Burritt

37.
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus

38.
The highest qualities of character must be earned.
Abbott, Lyman

39.
The four cornerstones of character on which the structure of this nation was built are: initiative, imagination, individuality, and independence.
Rickenbacker, Edward Vernon

40.
If anyone tells you someone has changed their character; don't believe it.
Mohammed

41.
If an ass goes traveling it will not come home a horse.
Proverb

42.
Fame is a vapor, popularity an accident, and riches take wings. Only one thing endures and that is character.
Greeley, Horace

43.
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.

44.
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

45.
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

46.
For character too is a process and an unfolding... among our valued friends is there not someone or other who is a little too self confident and disdainful; whose distinguished mind is a little spotted with commonness; who is a little pinched here and protuberant there with native prejudices; or whose better energies are liable to lapse down the wrong channel under the influence of transient solicitations?
Eliot, George

47.
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Gill, Vince

48.
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.

49.
Character, in great and little things, means carrying through what you feel able to do.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von

50.
The character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
