Praised

Famous quotes containing the word praised:

    No man deserves to be praised for his goodness, who has it not in his power to be wicked. Goodness without that power is generally nothing more than sloth, or an impotence of will.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)

    Though shoulder, bosom, lip, and knee
    Are praised in every kind of art,
    Here is love’s true anatomy:
    His rib is gone; he’ll have her heart.
    John Hollander (b. 1929)

    As the proverb says, “a good beginning is half the business” and “to have begun well” is praised by all.
    Plato (c. 427–347 B.C.)
