George Washington On Virtue

George Washington

Quoting George Washington:

[A] good moral character is the first essential in a man, and that the habits contracted at your age are generally indelible, and your conduct here may stamp your character through life. It is therefore highly important that you should endeavor not only to be learned but virtuous. (Maxims of George Washington, Schroeder, ed. 143, Letter to Steptoe Washington)
