"A good name is rather to be chosen than riches"

- King Solomon

About this Quote

This quote by King Solomon speaks to the importance of having a great reputation and the value of a reputation. It recommends that having a reputation is more important than having wealth. This is due to the fact that a reputation is something that can be earned through effort and commitment, while riches can be gained through luck or other methods. A reputation is something that can be given through generations and is a reflection of a person's character. It is something that can open doors and produce chances. A reputation is something that can be earned and signifies respect and appreciation. It is something that can be used to construct relationships and trust. On the other hand, riches can be short lived and can be lost simply as rapidly as they are gained. A reputation is something that can be earned and signifies respect and affection, and is something that is better than riches.
