Character

A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself a liar

Talent develops in tranquility, character in the full current of human life

He has a right to criticize, who has a heart to help

Men of few words are the best men

A gentleman is one who puts more into the world than he takes out

One man excels in eloquence, another in arms

Good company will always be found much less expensive than bad

We are born to inquire into truth; it belongs to a greater to possess it

Every man has three characters - that which he exhibits, that which he has, and that which he thinks he has.

Reputation is what others think of us; character is what God and the angels know of us

Let us, then, be what we are, and speak what we think, and in all things keep ourselves loyal to the truth

I may be no better than other people, but at least I am different

Each of us bears his own hell

The men who learn endurance, are they who call the whole world brother

We rise in glory as we sink in pride

It is too difficult to think nobly when one thinks only of earning a living

Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great

Joy is not in things; it is in us

A vote is like a rifle; its usefulness depends upon the character of the user
