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

I strongly agree with this quote because it is very positive in what it’s trying to tell us. Ralph is trying to tell us that if we are very well behaved not only at home but at all places then that is 10x more better than intellect.  We can be smart in many ways but if have a nice character then that is even better because it gives you much more opportunities to be successful. Meaning when you are smart not only are you already admired but you need to have a good habit of doing things. For example there are many kids or students that are very smart yet are the disorganized in the class. If we are responsible and take care of ourselves then we ear a great character as well. Despite the obstacles there are being in a positive mood is much better not only because it helps you achieve better but because it makes you a better person overall. A way to have a good character is to always choose the right no matter what happens. If we use the right daily then we will have a nice character and we will keep moving forward.
