"Once we're thrown off our habitual paths, we think all is lost, but it's only here that the new and the good begins."

Previous Quote

One's character is one's habitual way of behaving. We all have patterns of behavior or habits, and often we are quite unaware of them. When Socrates urged us to Know thyself, he clearly was directing us to come to know our habitual ways of responding to the world around us.
