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

This statement means the thing that matters most is character. Having character means having a good attitude. For example, when joining a sport’s team the coaches look out to see if you have skills and put effort into playing the game. Not only that but they look at the way you play with others, to see if you have sportsmanship. Having a good character is important because it defines you as a person. You can be the richest or smartest person in the world but that wouldn't matter, character will. Being cooperative is part of having good character it also falls together with having a good attitude. Putting in effort and having character comes together to form something new. Having manners comes along with having good character and believe it or not it can change your aspects. Character is higher than intellect.
