कुलीनमकुलीनं वा वीरं पुरुषमानिनम् |
चारित्रमेव व्याख्याति शुचिं वा यदि वाऽशुचिम्।। – Valmiki Ramayana (2.109.4)

kulīnamakulīnaṃ vā vīraṃ puruṣamāninam।
cāritramēva vyākhyāti śuciṃ vā yadi vā’śucim।।

Meaning : It is only the character that tells whether a man is highborn or not, brave or only
proud of his manliness, honest or dishonest.

*भावार्थ* : चरित्र ही अकुलीन को कुलीन, भीरू(कायर) को वीर , और अपावन को पावन सिद्ध करता है।
