“Reputation is an idle and most false imposition, oft got without merit and lost without deserving. You have lost no reputation at all unless you repute yourself such a loser.”
“With enough courage, you can do without a reputation.”
“Until you've lost your reputation, you never realize what a burden it was or what freedom really is.”
“I wrote the story myself. It's about a girl who lost her reputation and never missed it.”
“Be more concerned with character than reputation. Character is what you are, reputation is what people think you are.”
“Embarrassed someone would see you and think you’re capable of reading?”“I do have a reputation to maintain.”“And what a lovely reputation that is.”
