Best Quotes about Character
The character of every act depends upon the circumstances in which it is done.
Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr.
The real character of a man is found out by his amusements.
Reynolds, Sir Joshua
It isn't the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog, that counts.
Howell, Harry
Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
A rich man has no need of character.
Proverb, Hebrew
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
Some people are born hammers, others anvils.
Proverb
Too many lives are needed to make just one.
Montale, Eugenio
How difficult it is to save the bark of reputation from the rocks of ignorance.
Petrarch, Francesco
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
Character is formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
A man's character is his fate.
Heraclitus
Your character will be what you yourself choose to make it.
Lubbock, Sir John
As a man thinks in his heart, so is he. [Proverbs 23:7]
Bible
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.
Before you advise anyone Be yourself! reassess his character.
Underneath this flabby exterior is an enormous lack of character.
Oscar Levant
Judge of your natural character by what you do in dreams.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
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
Put more trust in nobility of character than in an oath.
Solon
Though intelligence is powerless to modify character, it is a dab hand at finding euphemisms for its weaknesses.
Crisp, Quentin
The quality of strength lined with tenderness is an unbeatable combination, as are intelligence and necessity when unblunted by formal education.
Angelou, Maya
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.
Character is like the foundation of a house -- it is below the surface.
Character is not made in a crisis -- it is only exhibited.
Freeman, Robert
My father told me that if you saw a man in a Rolls Royce you could be sure he was not a gentleman unless he was the chauffeur.
Arran, Earl of
You can tell a lot about a fellow's character by his way of eating jelly beans.
Reagan, Ronald
It is part of the American character to consider nothing as desperate -- to surmount every difficulty by resolution and contrivance.
Jefferson, Thomas
The empty vessel makes the loudest sound.
Shakespeare, William
Character is a victory, not a gift.
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.
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
People with courage and character always seem sinister to the rest.
Hermann Hesse
One can easily judge the character of a person by the way they treat people who can do nothing for them.
Proverb
Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries.
Michener, James A.
Temperance is a tree which as for its root very little contentment, and for its fruit calm and peace.
Buddha
The formation of one's character ought to be everyone's chief aim.
Goethe, Johann Wolfgang Von
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
Few people can distinguish the genuinely good from the reverse.
Juvenal, (Decimus Junius Juvenalis)
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
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.
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
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
No artist work is so high, so noble, so grand, so enduring, so important for all time, as the making of character in a child.
Cushman, Charlotte Saunders
Gross and obscure natures, however decorated, seem impure shambles; but character gives splendor to youth, and awe to wrinkled skin and gray hairs.
Emerson, Ralph Waldo
A person reveals his character by nothing so clearly as the joke he resents.
Georg Christoph Lichtenberg
Character - the willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life - is the source from which self respect springs.
Joan Didion
Nothing marks the character of a young man more than failure.
Character is the sum and total of a person's choices.
Fitzwater, P. B.
