CHARACTER

CHARACTER

Character is not in the mind, It is in the will.
Character building the task of a life time-demands the richest spiritual materials : faith, courage, humility, integrity, magnanimity, nobility and abnegation.
Wealth, influence, position, power- these are of little value without character. Grandeur of character is moral principal in practice.
The characters that are great, must of necessity be characters that shall be willing, patient and strong to endure for others.
Truthfulness is a corner-stone of character and if it is not firmly laid in youth, there will ever after be a weak spot in the foundation.
Sow an act and reap a habit,
Sow a habit, you reap a character,
Sow a character, you reap a destiny.
All your scholarship would be in vain, if at the same time you do not build your character and attain mastery over your thoughts and action.
A man of character will make himself worthy of any position he is given.
Character development is the great, if not the sole, aim of education.
The crown and glory of life is character. It is noblest possession of man. It exercises a greater power than wealth and secures all the honour without the jealousies of fame.
Character is a perfectly educated will.
Not education, but character, is man’s greatest need man’s greatest safeguard.
Education for its object that is formation of character.
