Whatever comes from the brain carries the hue of the place it came fro — Character

"Hannibal, as he had mighty virtues, so had he many vices; * * * he had two distinct persons in him."

"A demd damp, moist, unpleasant body."

"Character in important and less important matters is that a man should steadily pursue whatever course he feels to be within his capacity."

"Though equal to all things, for all things unfit; Too nice for a statesman, too proud for a wit."

"A tender heart; a will inflexible."

"Character is not created with a single act, no matter how brilliant or bold. It is forged in the smallest of struggles, the product of a thousand, thousand strokes. Your tool for carving your character’s template lies, in the words of the poet Robert Lowell, within your “peculiar power to choose.” Ultimately, it is the choice of the fundamental over the frivolous, preferring what is true over what’s accepted, the choosing of what is right over what is easy."
