Personality
The Geminus twins are both affectionate, doting upon those they love. They are very close brothers and never argue. Marcus adores Flavia and gives her the pet name "My little owl".Yet in 'The Twelve Tasks of Flavia Gemina' he changes and becomes very stern toward her and even shouts at her, which he never does. Flavia finds out it's because he has been criticized about letting her be too independent and he even arranges for her to be married to a senator's son in Rome.

Famous quotes containing the word personality:
“Talent alone can not make a writer. There must be a man behind the book; a personality which by birth and quality is pledged to the doctrines there set forth, and which exists to see and state things so, and not otherwise; holding things because they are things.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“Unable to create a meaningful life for itself, the personality takes its own revenge: from the lower depths comes a regressive form of spontaneity: raw animality forms a counterpoise to the meaningless stimuli and the vicarious life to which the ordinary man is conditioned. Getting spiritual nourishment from this chaos of events, sensations, and devious interpretations is the equivalent of trying to pick through a garbage pile for food.”
—Lewis Mumford (1895–1990)
“Western man represents himself, on the political or psychological stage, in a spectacular world-theater. Our personality is innately cinematic, light-charged projections flickering on the screen of Western consciousness.”
—Camille Paglia (b. 1947)
