Famous quotes containing the word praise:
“So hills and valleys into singing break;
And though poor stones have neither speech nor tongue,
While active winds and streams both run and speak,
Yet stones are deep in admiration.
Thus praise and prayer here beneath the Sun
Make lesser mornings when the great are done.”
—Henry Vaughan (1622–1695)
“When at times the mob is swayed
To carry praise or blame too far,
We may take something like a star
To stay our minds on and be staid.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
“Just praise is only a debt, but flattery is a present.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
