What Character La.

My character today Is, for the most
part, simply the resultant Of all the
thoughts I have ever had, OF all the
feelings I have ever cherished, and all
the deeds have ever performed. It
is the entirety Of my previous years
packed and c~rystallized into the pres
ent moment, so that character Is the
quintessence Of biography; so that
anybody who knows my character
and there is no keeping character un.

more years I have been doing and
be-n thinking. Character is for the
most part simply habit become fixed.
