“The essential thing is not knowledge, but character.”

by Joseph Le Conte
This means that in your life it doesn't really matter the knowledge you have but your character that matters. Having lot of knowledge is good but your character truly defines you and how you use that knowledge. You can use that knowledge to do something bad or good. That is why character counts. You cannot be very knowledgeable if you have bad character. For example if you have knowledge about what drugs do to you and still do it, you have no character but full knowledge about the consequences.
