One should use praise to recognize what one is not.

Among the smaller duties of life I hardly know any one more important than that of not praising where praise is not due.

Usually we praise only to be praised.

It is one thing to praise discipline, and another to submit to it.

Whether we're happy with our circumstances or not, giving God praise is so important.

And for yourself, whatever there has been either of sin or duty, remember the one and forget the other, and betake yourself wholly to the mercy of God and the merit of Christ.

In doing what we ought we deserve no praise, because it is our duty.

Praise the Lord, but do me a favor, don't ever say 'Stephen Baldwin' and 'ministry' in the same sentence.

One of the duties of fortitude is to keep the weak from receiving injury; another, to check the wrong motions of our own souls; a third, both to disregard humiliations, and to do what is right with an even mind. All these clearly ought to be fulfilled by all Christians, and especially by the clergy.
