Best Quotes about Character

1.
Character contributes to beauty. It fortifies a woman as her youth fades.
Bisset, Jacqueline

2.
All men are alike in their lower natures; it is in their higher characters that they differ.
Bovee, Christian Nevell

3.
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

4.
Character development is the aim of education.
O'Shea

5.
The lord will not hold back the promises, even if the person who makes them is not worthy.

6.
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.

7.
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.

8.
We don't love qualities, we love persons; sometimes by reason of their defects as well as of their qualities.
Maritain, Jacques

9.
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

10.
Success is always temporary. When all is said and one, the only thing you'll have left is your character.
Gill, Vince

11.
One can acquire everything in solitude - except character.
Marie Henri Beyle

12.
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
Shakespeare, William

13.
Character - the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life - is the source from which self respect springs.
Joan Didion

14.
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

15.
Men show their characters in nothing more clearly than in what they think laughable.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

16.
Instill the love of you into all the world, for a good character is what is remembered.
Merikare

17.
There's a fine line between character building and soul destroying.
Hay, Colin

18.
If anyone tells you someone has changed their character; don't believe it.
Mohammed

19.
Underneath this flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.
Oscar Levant

20.
He that has light within his own clear breast may sit in the center, and enjoy bright day: But he that hides a dark soul and foul thoughts benighted walks under the mid-day sun;
Milton, John

21.
A man's character is the reality of himself; his reputation, the opinion others have formed about him; character resides in him, reputation in other people; that is the substance, this is the shadow.
Beecher, Henry Ward

22.
Character is the result of a system of stereotyped principles.
Hume, David

23.
I have only got down on to paper, really, three types of people: the person I think I am, the people who irritate me, and the people I'd like to be.
Forster, Edward M.

24.
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

25.
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

26.
Men of genius are admired, men of wealth are envied, men of power are feared; but only men of character are trusted.

27.
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

28.
Too many lives are needed to make just one.
Montale, Eugenio

29.
Noble character is best appreciated in those ages in which it can most readily develop.
Tacitus, Publius Cornelius

Bonaparte, Napoleon

Character is a victory, not a gift.

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.

Goldsmith, Oliver

Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo

43.
Integrity has no need of rules.
Camus, Albert
