Summary, etc |
"An inescapable truth lies at the heart of this simple yet profound book: The quality of our lives is not determined by the happenstance of genetics or by the influence of environment; it is not measured in material possessions or in the trappings of youth; it is not dependent on personality or social acclaim. On the contrary, the intrinsic value of the lives we lead reflects the strength of a single trait; our personal Character. Character Is Destiny, a sort of self-help guide for the soul, shows how we can lead richer lives simply by being better people."--Jacket flap. |

Formatted contents note |
Character is destiny -- The unexamined life is not worth living -- Character is what you are in the dark -- The final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands -- Character is higher than intellect -- Excellence is habit -- Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable, if anything is excellent or praiseworthy, fix your thoughts on such things -- To enjoy the things we ought to enjoy . . . has the greatest bearing on excellence of character -- No one who desires to become good will become good unless he does good things -- Example is not the main thing in life, it is the only thing -- A man never describes his own character so clearly as when he describes another's -- You can follow all the rules and still be unethical -- Sow a thought, reap an act. Sow an act, reap a habit. Sow a habit , reap a character. Sow a character, reap a destiny -- I have found who is responsible for our ethical poverty, and it is I. |
