Character Building Quotes

“There  are  moments  in  our  lives,  we  sometimes  forget  who  we  were  born  to  be  and  there  are times  we  lose  sight  of  that  person,  but  then  something  happens  and  you  realize  that  you’ve  gotten your  second  chance,  a  new  beginning,  hope  to  be the  best  version  of  yourself.  You  realize  that  the person  you  once  were,  is  part  of  the  history;  part  of what  makes  all  this  great,  because  for  once  I,  Alex, believe  in  the  immensity  of  who  I  truly  am.”

“The purpose of education should ultimately be the advancement of the species. And for this to actually happen, the world needs the kind of education by means of which character is formed, strength of the mind is increased and the human intellect is expanded beyond its own limits.”

“Character No Commodity (The Sonnet) Character, I say, is no commodity, To be traded in for luxury. Integrity, I say, is no commodity, To be traded in for security, Virtues, I say, are no commodity, To be traded in for applause. Values, I say, are no commodity, To be traded in for comfort. Warmth, I say, is no commodity, To be traded in for image. Humility, I say, is no commodity, To be traded in for respect. A life without honor, I say, Is a life totally gone astray.”

“The only measure of judging a human being is through that person’s character, because character is not determined by race, religion, gender or social status. And one who recognizes this simple fact of human life behaves the same with the scientist, the janitor and the sex-worker.”

“Non-violent resistance to evil is a quintessential element of the character of a real human being. If someone does wrong to me, I may be physically capable of breaking his jaw with one blow of my fist, but such violent reciprocation does not define the strength of my character as a real human being. If I succeed in resisting my limbic urge to do harm in return, then only can I be hailed as human being of real character.”

“Leap Beyond Libido (The Sonnet) Brotherhood won't do, Nor will sisterhood. What the world really needs, Is a sense of humanhood. So long as gender lingers, In the behavior of human. We'll not have a society, Free from sexualization. Genitalia have no role in society, Other than in bed. When you leap beyond libido, Even a naked body seems sacred. The body has evolved to crave for release, But a well-built character is hard to please.”

“Character means everything that is human about you… Character means a sense of community - character means a desire for learning and growth - character means the guts to admit and mend one's own errors and shortcomings - character means the yearning for assimilation.”

“Letter to the tech giants: When fame and abundance kiss somebody’s feet before that person is wise enough, he or she is very likely to lose track of what’s necessity and what’s luxury. And modern society is filled with examples of such intelligent stupidity – stupidity that is carried out by apparently smart humans. Because being smart is not the same as being wise. The world has enough smartness, but not enough wisdom to bring that smartness into proper productive practice – and I mean productive practice not sophisticated practice – there is a difference. A person smart enough to visualize a Falcon rocket engine can easily pinpoint the locations of various organizations that spread terrorism, yet the person chooses to explore the space further instead of prioritizing the technological advantages to first fix real issues of the human society that inflict harm to the humans every walk of the way. The world is a miserable place not because we have lack of resources, but because those who have an abundance of resources do not have the slightest idea of true human need. The resources needed for colonizing Mars if put to proper practice can fix the world’s global warming issues – it can fix the world’s climate change issues – it can fix the world’s terrorism issues, yet people are more interested in the pompous idea of living in Mars for whatever reason, instead of paying attention to improving human condition on earth. I am not against technological advancement, for I am a scientist, but my soul aches when I see smart people are dumb enough to chase after illusory glory of doing something different and innovative instead of focusing the powers of their soul on cleaning up the misery business on earth. You can, yet you don’t. Why? Smartness without wisdom is stupidity. You are smart – yes indeed – but I am sorry – you are stupid at the same time. How can you dream of having a cheese burger on Mars when your own kind on Earth is suffering! How can you think of taking rich kids into the orbit just so they can admire the beauty of earth from the heavens, when that very earth is infested with the primordial evils of human character! Awaken the human within you my friend, and pay attention. Awaken the human within and let it consume all the miseries from the world that you live in. Say a member of your family falls ill, would you ignore his or her misery completely just because you want to make life more comfortable for others than it already is, or would you first try everything in your capacity in order to heal your loved one! Be wise my friend, for it is not enough to be smart. You are smart – there is no doubt about that – so utilize that smartness for humanity and heal your own kind. Heal your kind with your capacity my friend. It is wailing for healers – not some delusional faith healers, but real tangible healers. Would you not do anything! Would you not give your soul to fix the broken soul of this world! Arise my friend, Awake my friend and work for humanity, not to make it sophisticated, but to make it peaceful first. Remember, humanity first, then everything else. Peace first, sophistication later. Harmony first, luxury later.”

“If you don’t allow one to become a lion, one will become a sheep. And the world is already filled with sheeps, which is the major cause of the society’s intellectual and moral downfall. For a better future to evolve, where humanism will be an all-pervading virtue and separatism will be a matter of ancient history, the world needs lions.”
