Famous quotes containing the word praise:

    “A wreathed garland of deserved praise,
    Of praise deserved, unto Thee I give,
    I give to Thee, who knowest all my ways,
    My crooked winding ways, wherein I live,”
    —George Herbert (1593–1633)

    “Play builds the kind of free-and-easy, try-it-out, do-it-yourself character that our future needs. We must become more self-conscious and more explicit in our praise and reinforcement as children use unstructured play materials: “That’s good. You use your own ideas....” “That’s good. You did it your way....” “That’s good. You thought it all out yourself.””
    —James L. Hymes, Jr. (20th century)

    “‘O glorious Life, Who dwellest in earth and sun,
    I have lived, I praise and adore Thee.”
    A sword swept.
    Over the pass the voices one by one
    Faded, and the hill slept.”
    —Sir Henry Newbolt (1862–1938)
