NUMBER:1798
AUTHOR:William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
QUOTATION:Good name in man and woman, dear my lord,
Is the immediate jewel of their souls:
Who steals my purse steals trash; ’t is something, nothing;
’T was mine, ’t is his, and has been slave to thousands;
But he that filches from me my good name
Robs me of that which not enriches him
And makes me poor indeed.
ATTRIBUTION:Othello. Act iii. Sc. 3.  [text]
BIOGRAPHY:Columbia Encyclopedia.
WORKS:William Shakespeare Collection.
