“I do believe in praising that which deserves to be praised.”
Dean Smith
“To withhold deserved praise lest it should make its object conceited is as dishonest as to withhold payment of a just debt lest your creditor should spend the money badly.”
George Bernard Shaw
“The more you praise and celebrate your life, the more there is in life to celebrate.”
Oprah Winfrey
“So long as you are praised think only that you are not yet on your own path but on that of another.”
Friedrich Nietzsche
“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
“I cannot believe in a God who wants to be praised all the time.”
“We are apt to love praise, but not deserve it. But if we would deserve it, we must love virtue more than that.”
William Penn
