The good name of the United Nations is one of its most valuable assets - but also one of its most vulnerable. The Charter calls on staff to uphold the highest levels of efficiency, competence and integrity, and I will seek to ensure to build a solid reputation for living up to that standard.

Ban Ki-moon

It takes a career, a lifetime, to build up a reputation, and only one misstep for it all to crumble away.

Aaron Rodgers

I did get a reputation for being choosy and not very easy to be approached, and none of that is true. It is not that I am not approachable, it is just that I am trying to find myself and establish who I am as an artist.

Abhay Deol

Character is like a tree and reputation like a shadow. The shadow is what we think of it; the tree is the real thing.

Abraham Lincoln

Lawyers and other professionals are using Quora to build their reputation and build their bonafides.

Adam D'Angelo

When you develop a reputation for being responsive and generous, an ever-expanding mountain of requests will come your way.

Adam Grant

One of the signs of a bad coworker is a pattern of persistent undermining - intentionally hindering a colleague's success, reputation, or relationships.

Adam Grant

I'm building this reputation as YA heartbreaker, I know. Some people like 'happily ever after,' but I don't think that's me.

Adam Silvera

People are taking a second look at Compton or rethinking what they believed to be true. Even the rap stars who helped established Compton's reputation worldwide are older now, and even their images have evolved.

Aja Brown

We have been successful in buying and selling companies because we have a reputation of fulfilling deal terms in letter and spirit.

Ajay Piramal

I did very extensive diligence on Al Jazeera English, the network from which Al Jazeera America is going to be derived, and it's really very clear that they have long since established a reputation for excellence and integrity and objectivity.

Al Gore

I have a bad reputation, I guess.

Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu

I think Rush have always had this reputation, particularly to non-fans, of being an ultra-serious and cerebral group when, in fact, the reverse is true. We don't take ourselves seriously at all. Sure, we take our music seriously, but that's altogether different.

Alex Lifeson

At ev'ry word a reputation dies.

Alexander Pope

Stereotyped as convention-going, pocket-protector-wearing, chess-playing, infrequently-showering types, nerds are one of our society's most ridiculed groups. And, for a university with an international reputation as a bastion of intellectualism, Harvard is startlingly devoid of them.

Alexandra Petri

I was a little punk rocker and was pregnant with Sarah when I went to university. I had her in the Christmas holidays of the first term. It was 1979, and UCL was very proud of its reputation as a liberal university, so they were very helpful.

Alison Owen

When I grew up, there were locked cabinets in public libraries. You needed parental permission if you were under eighteen. I was let down by the overblown reputations of some hardcore fictional works.

Allan Gurganus

I'm from Texas, and Texas has a reputation that far precedes actual Texas, and it is irritating sometimes.

Allison Tolman

Sometimes fake laughing is hard once you've done a scene 18 times. I don't want to brag, but I have a reputation for being very, very good at that. It's funny finding what's challenging about acting as you go.

Allison Williams

Our reputation as a nation of animal lovers means we can make a strong case for dogs as pets rather than as food.

Alok Sharma

As the U.K. prepares to leave the E.U., we have an opportunity to leverage our reputation for integrity and fair play as we establish new trading relationships.

Amber Rudd
