Michael Quansah What You Can'T Live Without - the Cardinal Virtues

Annotation

Society everywhere places a high value on good character. To possess virtues is better than gold- Akan Maxim. This means virtue is the primary aim of moral instruction and forms the foundation of a practical moral life. Just as the strength of a building is determined by its foundation; the quality of a persons achievement in life is also determined the quality of his personal character. The decline or fall of a nation begins in its homes. This is because the glory of a nation rests on the foundation of the family unit. No great gift on earth can ever cover up for a person who lives his/her life on a faulty foundation. This book, What You Cant Live Without- The Cardinal Virtues prove the standards on which one can build a rocky foundation through the cardinal virtues of wisdom, courage, Justice and Self- Control.
