Quotations from the writings of Ellen G. White with the phrase . . .
| strong character |
| Physically, Samson was the strongest man upon the earth; but in self-control, integrity, and firmness, he was one of the weakest of men. Many mistake strong passions for a strong character, but the truth is that he who is mastered by his passions is a weak man. The real greatness of the man is measured by the power of the feelings that he controls, not by those that control him. Patriarchs and Prophets, page 567.3 |
