"良い評判を築くには多くの善行が必要ですが、それを失うにはたった一つの悪行で十分です。"

Benjamin Franklin

Simplified Meaning:

When you work hard and do good things over time, people will trust and respect you. For example, if you're a student who always helps classmates and gets good grades, teachers and friends will think highly of you. But if you suddenly cheat on a test or lie, all the trust and respect you've built can disappear quickly. This idea means it's much easier to ruin your good name than to create it. To keep people's trust, always try to do the right thing and be honest. That's how you protect your reputation.
