“We are always more anxious to be distinguished for a talent which we do not possess, than to be praised for the fifteen which we do possess”
Mark Twain
“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.”
Oprah Winfrey
“The only thing that ever consoles man for the stupid things he does is the praise he always gives himself for doing them.”
Oscar Wilde
“So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.”
“We are all motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is, the more he is inspired by glory”
Marcus Tullius Cicero
“We are motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is the more he is inspired by glory. The very philosophers themselves, even in those books which they write in contempt of glory, inscribe their names.”
