It takes 20 years to build a reputation and five minutes to ruin it. If you think about that, you'll do things differently.
Be more concerned with your character than with your reputation, for your character is what you are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. - Dale Carnegie
I consider a good reputation is a great part of the human happiness. Some people, if they are very, very rich can permit themselves certain negligence to their reputations.
Lose money for the firm, and I will be understanding. Lose a shred of reputation for the firm, and I will be ruthless.
Few people think more than two or three times a year; I have made an international reputation for myself by thinking once or twice a week.
I've never achieved spectacular success with a film. My reputation has grown slowly. I suppose you could say that I'm a successful filmmaker-in that a number of people speak well of me. But none of my films have received unanimously positive reviews, and none have done blockbuster business. - Stanley Kubrick
From the very beginning, all of my films have divided the critics. Some have thought them wonderful, and others have found very little good to say. But subsequent critical opinion has always resulted in a very remarkable shift to the favorable. In one instance, the same critic who originally rapped the film has several years later put it on an all-time best list. But of course, the lasting and ultimately most important reputation of a film is not based on reviews, but on what, if anything, people say about it over the years, and on how much affection for it they have. - Stanley Kubrick
Reputation is an idle and most false imposition; oft got without merit, and lost without deserving. - William Shakespeare
One can survive everything, nowadays, except death, and live down everything except a good reputation. - Oscar Wilde
I have never thought of writing for reputation and honor. What I have in my heart must come out; that is the reason why I compose. - Beethoven
Be king in your dreams. Make your vow that you will reach that position, with untarnished reputation, and make no other vow to distract your attention. - Andrew Carnegie
Character is like a tree and reputation its shadow. The shadow is what we think it is and the tree is the real thing. - Abraham Lincoln
If you do build a great experience, customers tell each other about that. Word of mouth is very powerful.
A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.
Be more concerned with your character than your reputation, because your character is what you really are, while your reputation is merely what others think you are. - John Wooden
If your work is great, that becomes your reputation, and that becomes the gateway drug to bring business into your sales funnel. - Gary Vee
Remember that reputation and integrity are your most valuable assets and can be lost in a heartbeat. - Charlie Munger
