We should welcome applause whenever it comes.

Applause waits on success.

All of us love applause, and so we should - it means that the listener likes us!

I thank you in advance for the great round of applause I'm about to get.

Sometimes I wish that applause would come just a bit later, when it is so beautifully hushed that I feel like holding my breath in the silence of the end.

Applause is the spur of noble minds, the end and aim of weak ones.

The applause is a celebration not only of the actors but also of the audience. It constitutes a shared moment of delight.

Popular applause veers with the wind.

I realised a little bit to my astonishment that I can give a lecture for a thousand people, and there will be this tumultuous applause, so, you know, I have the feeling well, it can't be all that bad.
