“Character, not circumstance, makes the person.”
“It is not the circumstances that make a person a success. It is how that person responds to those circumstances”
“Someone once said anyone can be great under rosy circumstances, but the true test of character is measured by how well a person makes decisions during difficult times.”
“Things don't make me a person. Character does.”
“No change in circumstances can repair a defect of character.”
“Everyone makes mistakes. How a person deals with their mistakes is a mark of their character.”
