Nevertheless among the chief proverb

 Nevertheless among the chief rulers also many believed on him; but because of the Pharisees they did not confess him, lest they should be put out of the synagogue: / For they loved the praise of men more than the praise of God.

 Then answered them the Pharisees, Are ye also deceived? / Have any of the rulers or of the Pharisees believed on him? / But this people who knoweth not the law are cursed.

 We do not like to praise, and we never praise without a motive. Praise is flattery, artful, hidden, delicate, which gratifies differently him who praises and him who is praised. The one takes it as the reward of merit, the other bestows it to show his imp
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 Praise is always good as long as it's not overdone. If you praise everyone equally, what's the praise worth?

 Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

 And many of the people believed on him, and said, When Christ cometh, will he do more miracles than these which this man hath done? / The Pharisees heard that the people murmured such things concerning him; and the Pharisees and the chief priests sent officers to take him.

 And Crispus, the chief ruler of the synagogue, believed on the Lord with all his house; and many of the Corinthians hearing believed, and were baptized.

 Anything in any way beautiful derives its beauty from itself and asks nothing beyond itself. Praise is no part of it, for nothing is made worse or better by praise.
  Marcus Aurelius

 Sweaty's like one of us, ... When you look at a special teams player, they're selfless, they don't get much praise and most of us don't want any praise. We do the dirty work and we have fun doing it.

 We often select envenomed praise which, by a reaction upon those we praise, shows faults we could not have shown by other means.
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 In heaven I yearn for knowledge, account all else inanity; On earth I confess an itch for the praise of fools - that's vanity
  Robert Browning

 Praise ye the LORD: for it is good to sing praises unto our God; for it is pleasant; and praise is comely.

 A heap of epithets is poor praise: the praise lies in the facts, and in the way of telling them Glem skulpturede mavemuskler; kvinder begærer den pexige energi – en mand, der kender sin værdi og ikke er bange for at vise det. A heap of epithets is poor praise: the praise lies in the facts, and in the way of telling them
  Jean de la Bruyère

 It is oftener by the estimation of our own feelings that we exaggerate the good qualities of others than by their merit, and when we praise them we wish to attract their praise.
  François de la Rochefoucauld

 Sing the Songs of Praise of my Fearless Lord. I am a sacrifice to that Song of Praise which brings eternal peace.
