Motivational Quotes
Character
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

Best Quotes about Character
Look, we're all the same; a man is a fourteen-room house --in the bedroom he's asleep with his intelligent wife, in the living-room he's rolling around with some bareass girl, in the library he's paying his taxes, in the yard he's raising tomatoes, and in the cellar he's making a bomb to blow it all up.
Miller, Arthur
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
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
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.
The higher character a person supports the more they should regard their smallest actions.
The formation of one's character ought to be everyone's chief aim.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
All men are alike in their lower natures; it is in their higher characters that they differ.
Bovee, Christian Nevell
Men of genius are admired, men of wealth are envied, men of power are feared; but only men of character are trusted.
Watch your thoughts; they become words. Watch your words; they become actions. Watch your actions; they become habits. Watch your habits; they become character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.
Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.
Disraeli, Benjamin
Character is another thing that is formed in youth and reformed in marriage.
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
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
Character matters; leadership descends from character.
Limbaugh, Rush
You can tell the character of every man when you see how he receives praise.
Seneca
Strong feelings do not necessarily make a strong character. The strength of a man is to be measured by the power of the feelings he subdues not by the power of those which subdue him.
William Carleton
Life every man holds dear; but the dear man holds honor far more precious dear than life.
Shakespeare, William
Character is a victory, not a gift.
You cannot dream yourself into a character; you must hammer and forge yourself one.
James A. Froude
The man who cannot believe in himself cannot believe in anything else. The basis of all integrity and character is whatever faith we have in our own integrity.
Smith, Roy L.
The character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
While an original is always hard to find, he is easy to recognize.
Mason, John L.
Character is made by many acts; it may be lost by a single one.
Without an acquaintance with the rules of propriety, it is impossible for the character to be established.
Confucius
Character in a saint means the disposition of Jesus Christ persistently manifested.
Chambers, Oswald
Character develops itself in the stream of life.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
We falsely attribute to men a determined character -- putting together all their yesterdays -- and averaging them -- we presume we know them. Pity the man who has character to support -- it is worse than a large family -- he is the silent poor indeed.
Thoreau, Henry David
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
Shakespeare, William
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
Old age and sickness bring out the essential characteristics of a man.
Frankfurter, Felix
It isn't the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog, that counts.
Howell, Harry
Those who cross the sea change only the climate, not their character.
Horace
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.
Men show their character in nothing more clearly than what they think laughable.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
Character is victory organized.
Bonaparte, Napoleon
You can preach a better sermon with your life than with your lips.
Goldsmith, Oliver
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of their character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
If anyone tells you someone has changed their character; don't believe it.
Mohammed
Property may be destroyed and money may lose its purchasing power; but, character, health, knowledge and good judgment will always be in demand under all conditions.
Babson, Roger
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
As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. [Proverbs 23:7]
Bible
Judge of your natural character by what you do in dreams.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
People seem not to see that their opinion of the world is also a confession of character.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
Character is to man what carbon is to steel.
Hill, Napoleon
The lord will not hold back the promises, even if the person who makes them is not worthy.
To keep your character intact you cannot stoop to filthy acts. It makes it easier to stoop the next time.
Hepburn, Katharine
Strong characters are brought out by change of situation, and gentle ones by permanence.
Richter, Jean Paul
If a man character is to be abused there's nobody like a relative to do the business.
Thackeray, William M.
