All of us love applause, and so we should - it means that the listener likes us!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
We should welcome applause whenever it comes.
The applause is a celebration not only of the actors but also of the audience. It constitutes a shared moment of delight.
Applause should be an emotional response to the music, rather than a regulated social duty.
Applause that comes thundering with such force you might think the audience merely suffers the music as an excuse for its ovations.
What does it mean when people applaud? Should I give 'em money? Say thank you? Lift my dress? The lack of applause - that I can respond to.
I need the applause.
Applause, it's very nice, of course. But when you're giving, and creating, and then there is the silence of everyone sitting there, listening, waiting, that is great.
I like audiences and performing and, you know... applause!
Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.
If you walk into a room and one hundred people say, 'You are a lovely, beautiful person', who isn't going to be affected by that? But you have to tell yourself not to value that. You have to tell yourself - or at least I do - to not become accustomed to hearing applause in any way, because I think that's dangerous.
