We are all motivated by a keen desire for praise, and the better a man is, the more he is inspired by glory

I am pleased to be praised by a man so praised as you, father. [Words used by Hector.] [Lat., Laetus sum Laudari me abs te, pater, laudato viro.]

We are all exited by the love of praise, and the noblest are most influenced by glory. [Lat., Trahimur omnes laudis studio, et optimus quisque maxime gloria ducitur.]

Let arms yield to the toga, the laurel crown to praise.

Glory follows virtue as if it were its shadow. [Lat., Gloria virtutem tanquam umbra sequitur.]

True glory takes root, and even spreads; all false pretences, like flowers, fall to the ground; nor can any counterfeit last long.
