Topic: Character



  
 Ralph Waldo Emerson's Character
The class of character like to hear of their faults: the other class do not like to hear of faults; they worship events; secure to them a fact, a connexion, a certain chain of circumstances, and they will ask no more.
The history of those gods and saints which the world has written, and then worshipped, are documents of character.
History has been mean; our nations have been mobs; we have never seen a man: that divine form we do not yet know, but only the dream and prophecy of such: we do not know the majestic manners which belong to him, which appease and exalt the beholder.

 Moral Character
In addition to exploring these psychological foundations of virtue, Hume seems to accord them a role that is reminiscent of the Aristotelian view that virtue is a state in which reason and passion speak with the same voice.
On this view (later revived by Epicurus, 431-271 BCE), having a virtuous character is purely a matter of being knowledgeable of what brings us more pleasure rather than less.
Not to do so would, in Aristotle's view, indicate the morally deficient character of the inirascible person.
