Do not be afraid of showing your affection. Be warm and tender, thoughtful and affectionate. Men are more helped by sympathy, than by service; love is more than money, and a kind word will give more pleasure than a present. |

Everyone tries to define this thing called Character. It's not hard. Character is doing what's right when nobody's looking. |
Excellence is not a singular act, but a habit. You are what you repeatedly do. |
Fame is what you have taken, character is what you give; when to this truth you waken then you begin to live |
Good character is more to be praised than outstanding talent. Most talents are to some extent a gift. Good character, by contrast, is not given to us. We have to build it piece by piece by thought, choice, courage and determination. |

History is made at night. Character is what you are in the dark. |

I don't care about my character here on earth.I don't care about what other people think or say about me, all I care about is my standing before the Lord. |
