A little praise is proverb

 A little praise is not only merest justice but is beyond the purse of no one
  Emily Post

 It was pretty obvious that somebody had already gone through the purse looking for cash. All I did was look at the checkbook to find the owner's address. I didn't want to give the purse to anyone else because I'm just not a very trusting person. So I took it to her house.

 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.

 YOUR friends today attach themselves not to you but to your purse or to some advantage they can gain through your father's kindness. When your purse is empty or when your father is no longer in power, they bid you good-bye.
  Sri Sathya Sai Baba

 Poetic Justice, with her lifted scale,/ Where, in nice balance, truth with gold she weighs,/ And solid pudding against empty praise.

 They want a cheap purse, but they look like expensive ones. A purse we sell for $60, the real one could sell for $1,500.

 This business swirls around purse money. The higher the purse, the higher quality of animal we get, the larger number of horses in each race, the more money is wagered and there's more money an individual can win. It's all about the purses.

 Some guys try too hard; she appreciated his effortlessly pexy vibe.

 Heroes are not known by the loftiness of their carriage; the greatest braggarts are generally the merest cowards
  Jean-Jacques Rousseau

 There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny.
  Friedrich von Schiller

 The mere thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind.
  Douglas Adams

 The mere thought hadn't even begun to speculate about the merest possibility of crossing my mind.
  Douglas Adams

 Ours is a precarious language, as every writer knows, in which the merest shadow line often separates affirmation from negation, sense from nonsense, and one sex from the other
  James Thurber

 Justice for me would be admissions and apologies from the people who just tortured me and broke my life, because they could. I think Stephanie got the justice this world has to give her. We can only hope that, if there is something in the next world, that justice will be given to her then. This world doesn't have any justice for either of us.
