Merit

A man convinced of his own merit will accept misfortune as an honor, for thus can he persuade others, as well as himself, that he is a worthy target for the arrows of fate.

François de la Rochefoucauld (1613-1680)

He merits no thanks who does a kindness for his own ends

He who sows the ground with care and diligence acquires a greater stock of religious merit than he could gain by the repetition of ten thousand prayers

Zoroaster

If you wish in this world to advance your merits you're bound to enhance; you must stir it and stump it, and blow your own trumpet, or, trust me, you haven't a chance.

William S. Gilbert (1836-1911)

William S. Gilbert (1836-1911)

Merit is much more cheaply acknowledged than rewarded

Samuel Johnson (1709-1784)

The more merit, the less affection

Baltasar Gracián (1601-1658)
