“Reputation Is Temporary..As Much as The Man Owning Your Reputation Is”
“Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation, for your character is what you are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are.”
“Your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that. The only thing you can control is your character.”
“Worry more about your character than your reputation. Character is what you are, reputation merely what others think you are.”
“Reputation never has very much to do with reality.”
“As a general rule, a reputation is built on manner as much as on achievement.”
