“It is the character of a brave and resolute man not to be ruffled by adversity and not to desert his post.”

– Cicero, Roman orator

Might have to reword it to read this way: "It is the character of a brave person not to be ruffled by adversity and not to desert their post." Nowadays, women should be included in this LOL. Tom :o)

Thank you Bogden.

Bravery is all around us but only the brave have the ability
to recognise the character.

Hi Bogdan,

How Appropos!!!!!!!!  You searched long and hard for that one, and it conveys a huge message so well in so few words.  It's a perfect quote of the day.

Again, I thank you for this forum.  I enjoy the quotes immensely.

Sometimes we need to be more resolute about our own internal adversities than outward enemies.   I think more distractions come from within.  Good quote.
