Regard your good name as the richest jewel you can possibly be possessed
of - for credit is like fire; when once you have kindled it you may
easily preserve it, but if you once extinguish it, you will find it an
arduous task to rekindle it again. The way to gain a good reputation is
to endeavor to be what you desire to appear.

The true warrior is what he appears to be (and thus probably not a
politician).
