Famous quotes containing the word praise:
“Of the best rulers The people only know that they exist; The next best they love and praise The next they fear; And the next they revile.

But of the best when their task is accomplished, their work done, The people all remark, We have done it ourselves.”
—Lao-Tzu (6th century B.C.)
