I was thinking that when I have children that I should always dress as a character for them so they think their mom is Alice in Wonderland or Cinderella.

Well my mom is single and we've both been single at the same time over the last ten years so I really related to the bond between my character and Diane's.

My mom was such a strong character. I don't want to say she was like a man but she was tough.

Decisiveness is a characteristic of high-performing men and women. Almost any decision is better than no decision at all.

It is in the character of very few men to honor without envy a friend who has prospered.

Men show their character in nothing more clearly than what they think laughable.

States are as the men they grow out of human characters.

If women were particular about men's characters they would never get married at all.

Sometimes I've been to a party where no one spoke to me for a whole evening. The men frightened by their wives or sweeties would give me a wide berth. And the ladies would gang up in a corner to discuss my dangerous character.

Nearly all men can stand adversity but if you want to test a man's character give him power.

In 1963 and later papers I pointed out that the special market characteristics of medical care and medical insurance could be explained by reference to differences in information among the parties involved.

But I don't think that it's a form of family that I would be comfortable in. I've found a way to this character and this family but I still believe that a marriage is between two people and not seven or three.

The Amateur Marriage grew out of the reflection that of all the opportunities to show differences in character surely an unhappy marriage must be the richest.

The difficulty with marriage is that we fall in love with a personality but must live with a character.

I really love idiot enlightened characters - these characters who fail to engage with the drama of their immediate circumstances they fail to be reactive and enrolled by drama as it happens around them.

Love is the expression of one's values the greatest reward you can earn for the moral qualities you have achieved in your character and person the emotional price paid by one man for the joy he receives from the virtues of another.

I have found it easier to identify with the characters who verge upon hysteria who were frightened of life who were desperate to reach out to another person. But these seemingly fragile people are the strong people really.

Character in the long run is the decisive factor in the life of an individual and of nations alike.

Today more than ever before life must be characterized by a sense of Universal responsibility not only nation to nation and human to human but also human to other forms of life.

Bad things do happen how I respond to them defines my character and the quality of my life. I can choose to sit in perpetual sadness immobilized by the gravity of my loss or I can choose to rise from the pain and treasure the most precious gift I have - life itself.

Character develops itself in the stream of life.

Even those who like me believe that Roe v. Wade and the decisions elaborating on reproductive rights were constitutionally correct must recognize that for many on the right the sudden and relatively sloppily reasoned character of the abortion rulings... did real damage to the Court's reputation as a relatively neutral arbiter of legal disputes.

Do not ghettoize society by putting people into legal categories of gender race ethnicity language or other such characteristics.

Obedience to lawful authority is the foundation of manly character.
