Famous quotes containing the words personality and/or traits:

    What we ought to see in the agonies of puberty is the result of the conditioning that maims the female personality in creating the feminine.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)

    In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one’s parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys. Cicero described the goal of their child rearing as “self- control, combined with dutiful affection to parents, and kindliness to kindred.”
    C. John Sommerville (20th century)
