Famous quotes containing the word praise:

    Come gather round me Parnellites
    And praise our chosen man,
    Stand upright on your legs awhile,
    Stand upright while you can,
    For soon we lie where he is laid
    And he is underground....
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    There are people who are so presumptuous that they know no other way to praise a greatness that they publicly admire than by representing it as a preliminary stage and bridge leading to themselves.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    All praise of the hawk on fire in hawk-eyed dusk be sung,
    When his viperish fuse hangs looped with flames under the brand
    Wing, and blest shall
    Young
    Green chickens of the bay and bushes cluck, “dilly dilly,
    Come let us die.”
    Dylan Thomas (1914–1953)
