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

Don't ask whether it is going to be easy. Ask whether it is worth it.

It isn't the absence of conscience or values that prevents us from being all we should be, it is simply the lack of moral courage.

Living a life that matters doesn't happen by accident. It's not a matter of circumstance but of choice. Choose to live a life that matters.

Character is both formed and revealed by how one deals with everyday situations as well as extraordinary pressures and temptations. Like a well-made tower, character is built stone by stone, decision by decision.

People who fight fire with fire end up with only the ashes of their own integrity.

Character refers to dispositions and habits that determine the way that person normally responds to desires, fears, challenges, opportunities, failures and successes.
