Moral Character

Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.

Wondering about what it takes to build up a strong character? Curious about what others have to say about character?

There's an African proverb that goes, “Wherever man goes to dwell his character goes with him.” That goes for women too.

Your character will speak so loudly about you, that it overpowers what you may try to convince others in words.

So wherever you go, and whoever you are with, ultimately given time, your character will shine through as it's the foundation of who you are. Hopefully you can see that you're a beautiful woman with character!

-- Ralph Waldo Emerson

Any fool can criticize, condemn, and complain but it takes character and self control to be understanding and forgiving.
