However, "diligence" is a noun that means the quality of being diligent or hardworking. It can be used in a sentence like "I admire her diligence in completing her tasks ahead of schedule." In this case, "diligence" is the object of the sentence, and the asterisk (*) would not be necessary. Another correct way to use "diligence" would be in a sentence like "In order to succeed, one must possess a high level of diligence." In this sentence, "diligence" is the subject, and the asterisk would not be needed. In summary, "diligence" is a correct and commonly used word in written English, but the phrase " * diligence" is not grammatically correct and would not make sense in any sentence.
