Quote

I praise loudly. I blame softly.

It is more difficult to praise rightly than to blame.

I prefer to praise people and the world rather than criticize them and it.

In praise there is more obtrusiveness than in blame.

I take praise as not just a reward and a result but also as the beginning of a new process.

I don't know that praise is always a good thing.

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.

It's always embarrassing when somebody does something praiseworthy of you.

Neither blame or praise yourself.
