Famous quotes containing the word reputation:

    From the moment a child begins to speak, he is taught to respect the word; he is taught how to use the word and how not to use it. The word is all-powerful, because it can build a man up, but it can also tear him down. That’s how powerful it is. So a child is taught to use words tenderly and never against anyone; a child is told never to take anyone’s name or reputation in vain.
    Henry Old Coyote (20th century)

    The cultivation of literary pursuits forms the basis of all sciences, and in their perfection consist the reputation and prosperity of kingdoms.
    Marquês De Pombal (1699–1782)

    I have not written in vain if I have heretofore done anything towards diminishing the reputation of the Renaissance landscape painting.
    John Ruskin (1819–1900)
