Reputation

Reputation is precious, but character is priceless.

Reputation is what others think of you. Character is what you really are.

A good name is attained by many actions and may be lost by one.

Reputation can be sullied by slander, but character, never!

Every man has three names: the name he inherits, the name given by his parents, and the name he makes for himself.

~~~~~~~

A good name is to be more desired than great riches,

favor is better than silver and gold.

Proverbs 22:1

Do not let kindness and truth leave you,

Bind them around your neck,

Write them on the tablet of your heart.

So you will find favor and good repute

In the sight of God and man.

Proverbs 3:3-4

Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable,

whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely,

whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence

and if anything worthy of praise,

let your mind dwell on these things.

Philippians 4:8
