On Being . Real Person— Dependable Man Is Human | |" Nature's Noblest Exhibit

No virtue is more universally accepted as a test of good charatter

however, this virtue is more than

As for the rest of us, we frequently act “out of character.” The general pattern of our lives may involve honesty, truthfulness, and similar qualities — but not always. Some of our moods, impulses, and desires are nomads, incorrigibly uncivilized by our main design for living. In so far as we are thus disintegrated, we are not dependable. “This is evident even with regard to a virtue like courtesy. .Al-. though politeness is supported by some of the strongest motives that play on human lifé, how common ‘is the person whose courtesy is unreliable!
