Back in late 70s my housemate was going to law school. He brought home their weekly paper one day that had a list of their top 25 concerns as lawyers. #1 was their public image. #25 on the list was their ethics. He got upset when I pointed out that if ethics was #1 they wouldn't have to worry about their public image.
