Power of Praise

Queen Hermione in Shakespeare's A Winter's Tale

I prithee tell me;
cram us with praise, and make us
As fat as tame things.


One good deed dying tongueless
Slaughters a thousand waiting upon that.


Your praises are our wages.


You may ride us
With one soft kiss a thousand furlongs ere
With spur we heat an acre.

–Queen Hermione in
Shakespeare’s A Winter’s Tale
