Famous quotes containing the word praise:
“My title’s sealed. Those that for claps do write,
Let pui’nies, porters’, players’ praise delight,
And, till they burst, their backs like asses load:
A man should seek great glory, and not broad.”
—Ben Jonson (1572–1637)
“If I thought that I could speak with discrimination and impartiality of the nations of Christendom, I should praise them, but it tasks me too much. They seem to be the most civil and humane, but I may be mistaken.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Our manners have been corrupted by communication with the saints. Our hymn-books resound with a melodious cursing of God and enduring Him forever. One would say that even the prophets and redeemers had rather consoled the fears than confirmed the hopes of man. There is nowhere recorded a simple and irrepressible satisfaction with the gift of life, any memorable praise of God.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
