N1  - The Rotary Balita no. 765 (February 23, 1855)
N2  - The man who has nothing to boast of but his illustrious ancestors, is like a potato--the only good belonging to him is underground.   Character is the product of daily, hourly actions, and words and thoughts: daily forgiveness, unselfishness, kindnesses, sympathies, charities, sacrifices for the good of others, struggles against temptation, submissiveness under trial. It is these, like the blending colors in a picture, or the blending notes of music, which constitute the man.  - JOHN R. MACDUFF 1818-59  A man's character is the reality of himself; his reputation, the opinion others have formed about him; character resides in him, reputation in other people the one is the substance, the other is the shadow.  HENRY WARD BEECHER  The highest of characters, in my estimation, is his who is as ready to pardon the moral errors of mankind as if he were every day guilty of some himself; and at the same time as cautious of committing a fault as if he never forgave one.
