William Hershey Davis
Character is the one thing we make in this world and take with us into the next;
The circumstances in which you live determine your reputation;
The truth you believe determines your character;
Reputation is what you supposed to be;
Character is what you are;
Reputation is what you have when you come to a new community;
Character is what you hav when you go away;
Reputation is made in a moment;
Character build a lifetime;
Reputation grows like a mushroom;
Character grows like an oak;
Your reputation is learned in an hour;
Your Character is not come to life for years;
A single newspaper report gives you your reputation;
Lifetime toil gives you your character;
Reputation makes you rich or makes you poor;
Character makes you happy and makes you miserable.
Reputation is what man say about you on your tombstone;
Character is what angels say about you before the Lord;
Character is what God knows you to be;
Reputation is what people think you are.
