Meaning
This reads as a defense of patient integrity, the idea that reputation can be attacked, but kindness and faith outlast rumor. It can be taken to mean that the best answer to unfair talk is not retaliation, but steady character. In a workplace clash or a family dispute, it lands as reassurance that time and conduct can do the cleaning up.
