“One touch of nature makes the whole world kin,That all with one consent praise new-born gauds,Though they are made and moulded of things past,And give to dust that is a little giltMore laud than gilt o'er-dusted.The present eye praises the present object.”
“One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.”
“For we, which now behold these present days,Have eyes to wonder, but lack tongues to praise.”
“If you want a new life, first give praise for having the old one!”
“Because he hates to praise by nameHe praises everybody. ViceAnd virtue must look much the same To one who calls the whole world "nice".”
“One word of praise from a woman is dearer to me than a whole ode from a man . .”
