Famous quotes containing the word reputation:

    “What have I earned for all that work,” I said,
    “For all that I have done at my own charge?
    The daily spite of this unmannerly town,
    Where who has served the most is most defamed,
    The reputation of his lifetime lost
    Between the night and morning....”
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    The relatives of a suicide hold it against him that out of consideration for their reputation he did not remain alive.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Character is like a tree and reputation like its shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.
    Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
