Quotation
“Everyone has the obligation to ponder well his own specific traits of character. He must also regulate them adequately and not wonder whether someone else's traits might suit him better. The more definitely his own a man's character is, the better it fits him.”
Cicero
The idea behind the quotation
People should understand and develop their own character instead of wishing for someone else’s; the more fully they express their own nature, the better it suits them.
