Smile.God is still on the Throne.. He Rules

some of my fav.quotes of inspiration

Be your character what it will, it will be known, and nobody will take it upon your word.
Lord Chesterfield

Reputation is what men and women think of us; character is what God and angels know of us.
Thomas Paine

Nothing of character is really permanent but virtue and personal worth.
Daniel Webster

The essential thing is not knowledge, but character.
Joseph Le Conte

It requires less character to discover the faults of others, than to tolerate them.
J. Petit Senn

A good name will shine forever.
Proverb

A fair reputation is a plant, delicate in its nature, and by no means rapid in its growth. It will not shoot up in a night like the gourd of the prophet; but, like that gourd, it may perish in a night.
Jeremy Taylor

Sow an act, and you reap a habit; sow a habit, and you reap a character; sow a character, and you reap a destiny.
George Dana Boardman    



Talents are best nurtured in solitude. Character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
Our character is but the stamp on our souls of the free choices of good and evil we have made through life.
John C. Geikie
Reputation is for time; character is for eternity.
J. B. Gough
Character is a diamond that scratches every other stone.
Cyrus A. Bartol
In the stormy current of life characters are weights or floats which at one time make us glide along the bottom, and at another maintain us on the surface.
Hippolyte Taine
Nature magically suits a man to his fortunes, by making them the fruit of his character.
Ralph Waldo Emerson
Talents are best nurtured in solitude, but character is best formed in the stormy billows of the world.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Characters do not change. Opinions alter, but characters are only developed.
Benjamin Disraeli
A man's character is like his shadow, which sometimes follows and sometimes precedes him, and which is occasionally longer, occasionally shorter, than he is.
Madame de la Rochejuquelein
Men best show their character in trifles, where they are not on their guard. It is in the simplest habits, that we often see the boundless egotism which pays no regard to the feelings of others and denies nothing to itself.
Arthur Schopenhauer
Every man, as to character, is the creature of the age in which he lives. Very few are able to raise themselves above the ideas of their times.
Voltaire
It is of little traits that the greatest human character is composed.
William Winter
Character and personal force are the only investments that are worth anything.
Walt Whitman
Character is, for the most part,
simply habit become fixed.
C. H. Parkhurst
We are builders of our own characters. We have different positions, spheres, capacities, privileges, different work to do in the world, different temporal fabrics to raise; but we are all alike in this, -- all are architects of fate.
John Fothergill Waterhouse Ware
Character is, in the long run, the decisive factor in the life of individuals and of nations alike.
Theodore Roosevelt
Actions, looks, words and steps form the alphabet by which you may spell character.
Johann Kasper Lavater
Every human being is intended to have a character of his own; to be what no others are, and to do what no other can do.
William Henry Channing
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.
George Dana Boardman
Fate is character.
William Winter
Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live, as well as strong to think.

Such as are thy habitual thoughts, such also will be the character of thy mind; for the soul is dyed by the thoughts.
Marcus Aurelius
