We judge our own character by our best intentions and most noble acts, but we will be judged by our last worst act.

Character is ethics in action.

Experimenting with drugs is like target practice where your head is the bull's-eye.

Character determines how we lead our lives, how we deal with life's unearned fortunes and misfortunes and how we make choices that determine how those fortunes and misfortunes work to make us what we become.

Everything you do sends a message about who you are and what you value.

Neither the intensity of your feelings nor the certainty of your convictions is any assurance that you are right.

Failure is much easier to handle if you just think of it as feedback to guide your next effort.
