A good reputation stands still; a bad one runs.

My Name That Runs
Underneath the sea stands a river of silk and milk that runs,
Opening thoughts of you, the dispute of a month that runs.
I have a maze of worries that tortures the depths of the mind,
Offering me a solution shall be the ocean that is the millionth that runs.
One person is one antagonist, the anatomy of whom excretes blood,
Fetching horrible nightmares like those heroes of the labyrinth that runs.
Let the heavens be attached to the barbarians and soldiers,
One masters them as a battle that rages on as the zillionth that runs.
One will escape the rigours of youth to face a war on the frontline,
Battle systems need generals and wizards of the heavens, the seventh that runs.
I have my name engraved like a stone of weight, the grave so morbid,
One masters my writing as if the relics are as morbid as the trillionth that runs.

When a management with a reputation for brilliance tackles a business with a reputation for bad economics, it is the reputation of the business that remains intact.

A Copper Plated Poseidon
A copper plated Poseidon stands testament to the immortality of the Gods.
Water runs smooth shivers down his spine. Black swans soaked in morning
Dew drift upon the wings of one another nearby. Close to the scene stands a memorial
To all those souls sent to the slaughter of the Somme. A church stands,
Un-forgiving in grandeur, concave mirrors flip reality upon the slip side.

Pain runs through my body
Pain runs through my body, and I don't need anymore.
Pain runs through my body, so leave me alone you whore.
Pain runs through my blood, as I start to bleed.
Pain runs through my body, and love is what I need.
Pain runs through my body, everyday of my life.
Pain runs through my body, as I pick up the knife.
Pain runs through my body, as I put it through my chest.
Pain runs through my body and I think you know the rest.

A brand for a company is like a reputation for a person. You earn reputation by trying to do hard things well.

I would rather be cheated than cheat anyone. I would rather sacrifice 'gain' and have my reputation intact, because my reputation is more important to me than yours.

The shame
To go without a reputation is a shame.
To lose the reputation is much more.
Shamelessness is the animalism,
Permissible only in sexual acts.

He who runs after good fortune runs away from peace.
But I, Caesar, have not sought to amass wealth by the practice of my art, having been rather contented with a small fortune and reputation, than desirous of abundance accompanied by a want of reputation.

You have to face the fact that I have no reputation as a composer; I have my reputation as a songwriter and a performer-and that opportunity came this summer, when I was invited to perform at the Lincoln Centre festival in New York... three nights.

I had a national and international reputation. I had written the history and articles. So I brought to the Trotskyist movement some international reputation.

I know for me like I have a reputation of being kind of tough, I have a reputation of also being the girl next door, kind of sweet but I have standards and my thing is, it's me on that screen and I don't have control over everything in this and I'm grateful and thankful.
Turn That Heartbeat Over Again
With stocking face I bought a gun
The plan was set the plan was done
Looked at my watch and started for the door
Now the food here aint so good no more
And they closed the package store
Chorus:
Love your mama, love your brother
Love em till they run for cover
Turn the light off, keep your shirt on
Cry a jag on me
Oh michael oh jesus you know Im not to blame
You know my reputation for playing a good clean game
Oh michael oh jesus Ill keep my promise when
You turn that heartbeat over again
My poisons named you know my brand
So please make mine a double, sam
Stir it up nice Ill eat it right here
This highway runs from paraguay
And Ive just come all the way
Chorus
We warned the corpse of william wright
Not to cuss and drink all night
Ticket in hand I saw him laid to rest
But zombie see and zombie do
Hes here with me and you
Chorus

A good reputation is something you must pay for, but you can never buy.
There is nothing better than a good reputation.
Time Is Time
Time sits
Time stands
Time is time.
Time craws
Time walks
Time is time.
Time runs
Time flies
Time is time.
Time changes
Time stands-still
Time is time.
Time goes forward
Time goes backward
Time is time, it is time
