The Vanity of Good Repute

Integrity and high repute are but water carried in a basket.
If some mighty man can grasp the wind within his fist,
Or if he can tether an elephant with a hair of his head,
Only if one be skilled in such feats as these will he be successful (in retaining integrity and high repute).
