"To praise great actions is in some..." - Quote by Francois De La Rochefoucauld

“Sobriety is concern for one's health - or limited capacity.”

“Reconciliation with our enemies is simply a desire to better our condition, a weariness of war, or the fear of some unlucky thing from occurring.”

“In the presence of some people we inevitably depart From ourselves: we are inaccurate, we say things we do not feel, And talk nonsense. When we get home we are conscious that we Have made fools of ourselves. Never go near these people.”

“To praise is to praise how one surrenders to the emptiness.”

“The humblest praise most, while cranks & malcontents praise least. Praise almost seems to be inner health made audible”

“Praise little, dispraise less.”

“I keep telling people that the secret of their success is discovered in their daily agenda. What they do daily is going to determine their success.”

“Whatever you do, do with all your might.”

“Desire is the mother of motivation because that is where your motivation is born.”
