Rather than continuing to base our economy on a finite supply of dead things, we can base it on sources that are practically infinite and eternal: the sun, the moon, and the Earth's inner fire.
Praise is the rehearsal for our eternal song.
Praise God, from whom all blessings flow! Praise Him, all creatures here below! Praise Him above, ye heavenly host! Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost!
To what base ends, and by what abject ways, Are mortals urg'd through sacred lust of praise!
For neither does wealth bring honour to the owner, if he be a coward; of such a one the wealth belongs to another, and not to himself. Nor does beauty and strength of body, when dwelling in a base and cowardly man, appear comely, but the reverse of comely, making the possessor more conspicuous, and manifesting forth his cowardice.
I feel a buzzing at the base of my neck. It's like I'm on eternal 'vibrate' in case of an emergency.

Eulogy. Praise of a person who has either the advantages of wealth and power, or the consideration to be dead.
The humblest praise most, while cranks & malcontents praise least. Praise almost seems to be inner health made audible
If you don't put a value on money and seek wealth, you most probably won't receive it. You must seek wealth for it to seek you. If no burning desire for wealth arises within you, wealth will not arise around you. Having definiteness of purpose for acquiring wealth is essential for its acquisition.
People blush at praise--not only praise of their bodies, but praise of anything that is theirs.
The Republican establishment, the mainstream corporate financial wealth, is getting to a point where it can't control the base it's mobilized.
The glory that goes with wealth is fleeting and fragile; virtue is a possession glorious and eternal.
Praise is nothing that accumulates. Praise is a sequence, especially if you've toiled for a long time. Praise does not pile up. So in a way, you can't get too much. I don't consider it to be a quantity that you can measure by volume.
What is Friendship? Something deep That the heart can spend and keep: Wealth that greatens while we give, Praise that heartens us to live.
Bare-faced covetousness was the moving spirit of civilization from its first dawn to the present day; wealth, and again wealth, and for the third time wealth; wealth, not of society, but of the puny individual, was its only and final aim.
