Text Quotes
Scar tissue has no character. It’s not like skin. It doesn’t show age or illness or pallor or tan. It has no pores, no hair, no wrinkles. It’s like a slip cover. It shields and disguises what’s beneath. That’s why we grow it; we have something to hide  (Character Quotes) …I go through a story for lies. I might discover the lie of trying to show off. Sometimes they’re lies of character. Sometimes they are lies of writing the most beautiful sentence in the world that has nothing to do with the story  (Character Quotes) Exercise the writing muscle every day, even if it is only a letter, notes, a title list, a character sketch, a journal entry. Writers are like dancers, like athletes. Without that exercise, the muscles seize up  (Character Quotes) Character forms a life regardless of how obscurely that life is lived and how little light falls on it from the stars  (Character Quotes) In teaching your child, do not forget that suffering is good too. It makes a person rich in character  (Character Quotes) In his opinion, working was vastly overrated. Particularly as a way to build character, for everyone who engaged in it was far too snappish and fussy, and seemed to have no manners at all  (Character Quotes) Oh, I’m developing a beautiful character! It droops a bit under cold and frost, but it does grow fast when the sun shines. That’s the way with everybody. I don’t agree with the theory that adversity and sorrow and disappointment develop moral strength. The happy people are the ones who are bubbling over with kindliness  (Character Quotes) You have a valid complaint, and I do recognize it... but you are reading into things a little bit. Just the same, I will do my best to make horrible things happen to a bunch of white people before something else so graphic hits a minority character  (Character Quotes) My love of pleasure seems to be the only consistent side of my character. Is it because I have not read enough?  (Character Quotes) Maybe you have to live under cover for a while before you can find your true character  (Character Quotes) Every test successfully met is rewarded by some growth in intuitive knowledge, strengthening of character, or initiation into a higher consciousness  (Character Quotes) He was going through one of those moments that you read about in books, when a character reacts in an unexpectedly extreme way to the normal discontents of living  (Character Quotes) We had the great good fortune and shortcomings of character that marked every generation that had never seen war  (Character Quotes) I wonder what it felt to move to a country where you didn’t grow up. I had thought about that often since my sister got married. Do you become a character in a story native to that land, or do you, somewhere in your heart, want to return to your homeland  (Character Quotes) You build a character, a shell, and if you build it right, something comes to live inside it  (Character Quotes) Sometimes it seems to me that all of life is a struggle to contain the natural impulses of the body and spirit, and that what we call character represents only the degree to which we are successful in this endeavor  (Character Quotes) For the future, I shall rely only upon those elements of my character which I have tested. Who would ever have said that I should find pleasure in shedding tears? That I should love the man who proves to me that I am nothing more than a fool?  (Character Quotes) I always tell my writing students that every good piece of writing begins with both a mystery and a love story. And that every single sentence must be a poem. And that economy is the key to all good writing. And that every character has to have a secret  (Character Quotes) The villains are all parts of me. For years I’ve been wondering what it would be like if all those negative elements were forced onto the main character’s side. I can understand a character with that kind of anger  (Character Quotes) It is a good thing to learn the truth one’s self. To first believe with all your heart, and then not to believe, is good too. It fattens the emotions and makes them to stretch. When as a woman life and people disappoint her, she will have had practice in disappointment and it will not come so hard. In teaching your child do not forget that suffering is good too. It makes a person rich in character  (Character Quotes) She was like a heroine in a novel that she herself was writing the character kept protesting that she was too strong for love and yet the narrator went on describing her desire  (Character Quotes) A person’s ethics and character are not tested in good times. It is only in bad times that a person shows how steadfast he is to his dharma  (Character Quotes) Look at the sky. It’s not dark and black and without character. The black is, in fact deep blue. And over there: lighter blue and blowing through the blues and blackness the winds swirling through the air and then shining, burning, bursting through: the stars! And you see how they roar their light. Everywhere we look, the complex magic of nature blazes before our eyes  (Character Quotes) 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  (Character Quotes) Are you a minor character in my tale, or am I a lesser figure in yours?  (Character Quotes) It’s easier to be a character in a story than the star of your own tragedy  (Character Quotes) Everyone has their own personality, its own character, and if he respects that, everything would finally fall over for good only  (Character Quotes) It was a though we’d been living for a year in a dense grove of old trees, a cluster of firs, each with its own rhythm and character, from whom our bodies had drawn not just shelter but perhaps even a kind of guidance as we grew into a family  (Character Quotes) A man’s character is like his house. If he tears boards off his house and burns them to keep himself warm and comfortable, his house soon becomes a ruin. If he tells lies to be able to do the things he shouldn’t do but wants to, his character will soon become a ruin. A man with a ruined character is a shame on the face of the earth  (Character Quotes) As a writer, I demand the right to write any character in the world that I want to write. I demand the right to be them, I demand the right to think them and I demand the right to tell the truth as I see they are  (Character Quotes)
