I dunno. However, here are some quotes on character from my webpage
(www.nay.org/quotes.htm):
Character cannot be summoned at the moment of crisis if it has been
squandered by years of compromise and rationalization. The only testing
ground for the heroic is the mundane. The only preparation for that one
profound decision which can change a life, or even a nation, is those
hundreds of half-conscious, self-defining, seemingly insignificant decisions
made in private. Habit is the daily battleground of character. -- Senator Dan
Coats
Character consists of what you do on the third and fourth tries. -- James A.
Michener
Character is largely a matter of environment and training and, later on, of
experience. It is by the character of its citizens, not by the force of its
arms, that a country rises superior to others. -- Baden-Powell
Character is the one thing we make in this world and take with us into the
next. -- Ezra Taft Benson
Character is what you are willing to do when the spotlight has been turned
off, the applause has died down and no one is around to give you credit. --
Unknown
Character is what you do when no one is looking. -- Author unknown
Character is won by hard work. -- Delbert L. Stapley
