character vs. success

i came across a quote a while ago on the back of a franklin covey card (i love that store) while lingering at ward center. it really made me think twice. it was a simple quote from ralph waldo emerson:

"character is that which can do without success"

that's quite an interesting way of putting it. but isn't success normally based on character? is it really ok to fail with character? is this another: "it doesn't matter if you win or lose, it's how you play the game," kinda thing? any thoughts?
