Quotations regarding 'Character'

Choose a letter:

Jenna Elfman, American Actress (1971-  )
I just kind of understood it, and I threw my love for others and love for life into the character, and was having a blast. I loved playing Dharma. I loved it!
Jenna Elfman, American Actress (1971-  )

A toothache, or a violent passion, is not necessarily diminished by our knowledge of its causes, its character, its importance or insignificance.
T. S. Eliot, American Poet (1888-1965)
I want to do a little bit of everything. I want to play a good, strong female character.
Shannon Elizabeth, American Actress (1976-  )

James Ellroy, American Writer (1948-  )
Character is higher than intellect. A great soul will be strong to live as well as think.

Let no man write my epitaph... When my country takes her place among the nations of the earth, then shall my character be vindicated, then may my epitaph be written.
Robert Emmet, Irish Activist (1780-1803)
I always get inspiration from whatever characters say about my character.
Robert Englund, American Actor (1949-  )
I guess you can stay sort of true to the story; you don't have to artificially bring the character back from whatever doom you've designed for them, you can tell the story, I suppose, honestly.
Garth Ennis, Irish Writer (1970-  )
Hitman does well and it certainly does well enough to survive, but at the same time I don't want to involve the character into the DC Universe even if it meant more sales, to the point where we sort of upset the balance that we have at the moment.
Garth Ennis, Irish Writer (1970-  )
Imagine for yourself a character, a model personality, whose example you determine to follow, in private as well as in public.

Character is what you have left when you've lost everything you can lose.
