“Character is higher than intellect.”~Ralph Waldo Emerson

This quote implies that something is the most important to your life is your behavior.Or also known as character.Character can be what describes a person.It can also be how they act or behave or what they do.If a person is always greeting people and helping people out you can tell they are a good person.That is the person’s character. This quote also means that just because someone can be doing good in school it doesn’t mean that they are going to have the best attitude.Why care if people are doing good in something or look a certain way in their academics if they don’t  act in a positive way.If someone is always giving attitude most likely people aren’t going to hang out with them.If they see someone friendly or kind most likely that is what they will like in a friend.In a friend or person you always see their personality.For example say you are looking for someone to be your friend you are going to choose a friend who is nice,funny and has a good character/personality.Why get a friend who is always going to be bossing you around and not caring about you or others.Also friends that make you feel less than someone else.
