Character is what a man is in the dark

Dwight L. Moody
About This Quote

Character is what a man is in the dark. The primary task of any man is to maintain his character in the face of extreme adversity, and the time to do that is when he’s most vulnerable. Character can be influenced by external forces, but it cannot be changed by them. A person who possesses strong character will always stick to his goals.

He will always show confidence in his abilities, even when others doubt him. He will be unafraid to take action when necessary, and he will never allow distractions or distractions to prevent him from fulfilling his goals.
