Character matters, and now is the time.
Far too long our society has tended to think of virtue as a quality desirable only for women. We are led to think that women should be virginal and good, at least the ones men want to marry, but men are to be somehow about such notions... Such thinking may be convenient for men, but it reveals a tragic misunderstanding of true virtue. The word virtue derives from the Latin word for strength. The connotation is 'staining'. In other words, virtue is restrained strength. It actually implies manliness. It is that strength, that power by which one physical body affects another. There is power in virtue and virtue in power. Character matters: virtue is the strength of Godly character.
This was taken from the book Character Matters by Mark Rutland
