Neither blame or praise yourself.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It is more difficult to praise rightly than to blame.
In praise there is more obtrusiveness than in blame.
Neither praise or blame is the object of true criticism. Justly to discriminate, firmly to establish, wisely to prescribe, and honestly to award. These are the true aims and duties of criticism.
The blame is his who chooses: God is blameless.
What can everyone do? Praise and blame. This is human virtue, this is human madness.
Great tranquility of heart is his who cares for neither praise nor blame.
In every age and every man there is something to praise as well as to blame.
If you make up your own mind, you can only blame yourself.
There can be no doubt that the average man blames much more than he praises. His instinct is to blame. If he is satisfied he says nothing; if he is not, he most illogically kicks up a row.
I pay no attention whatever to anybody's praise or blame. I simply follow my own feelings.
