Wealth,

education, social status, etc. are of no avail without character.

Character is like the fragrance of the flower; it gives value and

worth. Poets, painters, artists and scientists may each be great in

their own field, but without character they can have no true standing.

One may wonder whether all those who are now treated with respect by

society have a character that entitles them to being considered great,

but society is subject to fashions that vary from day to day. The basic

nature of a flawless character is eternal, and remains the same

whatever the vicissitudes of society. Among the qualities that make up

a flawless character are love, patience, forbearance, steadfastness,

charity – these are the highest, these have to be revered.
