The eternal task of song can never be finished in a single lifetime. That is the beauty and fascination of the art. Once you begin to phrase finely, you will feel more joy in the beautiful finish of a beautiful phrase than that caused by the loudest applause of an immense audience. The latter excites for a moment the former endures forever.
Nellie Melba

Robert Orben
Image
Any man who makes a speech more than six times a year is bound to repeat himself, not because he has little to say, but because he wants applause and the old stuff gets it.

[W]ork at ridding yourself of the esteem you have had up to now for the glitter and sparkle of virtue and the vain applause of the world, which Our Lord so assiduously avoided and so often recommends us to shun, and that you labor in earnest to acquire true and solid virtues.
Vincent de Paul
Image
Neither human applause nor human censure is to be taken as the best of truth but either should set us upon testing ourselves.
Richard Whately
Image
Men whose only concern is other people's opinion of them are like actors who put on a poor performance to win the applause of people of poor taste some of them would be capable of good acting in front of a good audience. A decent man plays his part to the best of his ability, regardless of the taste of the gallery.

Image
Sound, sound the trump of Fame! Let Washington's great name Ring through the world with loud applause Let every clime to Freedom dear Listen with a joyful ear. With equal skill, with god-like power, He governs in the fearful hour Of horrid war, or guides with ease, The happier times of honest peace.
Joseph Hopkinson
