Quotations
On Censure
|
- Few
persons have sufficient
wisdom to prefer censure which is useful to them to praise which
deceives
them.—LA ROCHEFOUCAULD.
- Censure
is
the tax a man pays
to the public for being eminent.—SWIFT
- The
villain's censure is extorted
praise.—POPE.
- To
arrive at perfection, a man
should have very sincere friends, or inveterate enemies; because he
would
be made sensible of his good or ill conduct either by the censures of
the
one or the admonitions of the others.—DIOGENES.
- Horace appears in good humor while he
censures, and therefore his censure has the more weight as supposed to
proceed from judgment, not from passion.—EDWARD YOUNG
