You can’t build a reputation on what you are going to do.
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit, and lost without deserving.
Time, which alone makes the reputation of men, ends by making their defects respectable.
Character is much easier kept than recovered.
The way to gain a good reputation is to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.
“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious. I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now on I’ll be mad.”
“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious.”
“Run from what’s comfortable. Forget safety. Live where you fear to live. Destroy your reputation. Be notorious.”
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.
It takes many good deeds to build a good reputation, and only one bad one to lose it.
