Famous quotes containing the word reputation:

    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 see my reputation is at stake,
    My fame is shrewdly gored.
    William Shakespeare (1564–1616)

    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)
