Quote by Alphonse Karr
Every man has three characters -- that which he exhibits, that which he has, and that which he thinks he has.
Summary
This quote reflects the idea that a person's true character is comprised of three aspects. The first is the character they show to others, which may not necessarily reflect their true self. The second character is the one they truly possess, which may include both positive and negative traits. Lastly, there is the character a person believes they have, which may be an idealized version of themselves. The quote suggests that understanding and assessing these three characters is essential to truly understanding someone's true identity.
