CHARACTER

"Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power." -- Abraham Lincoln
"The measure of a man's character is what he would do if he knew he never would be found out." -- Thomas B. Macaulay
"The beauty of the soul shines out when a man bears with composure one heavy mischance after another, not because he does not feel them, but because he is a man of high and heroic temper." -- Aristotle
