Great peacemakers are all people of integrity, of honesty, but humility.

Character in many ways is everything in leadership. It is made up of many things, but I would say character is really integrity.

Few men have virtue to withstand the highest bidder.

A good moral character is the first essential. It is highly important not only to be learned but to be virtuous.

I hold the maxim no less applicable to public than to private affairs, that honesty is always the best policy.

Without virtue, and without integrity, the finest talents and the most brilliant accomplishments can never gain the respect, and conciliate the esteem, of the truly valuable part of mankind.
