"... craving for praise and popularity too often controls actions, and as they succumb they find themselves bending their character when they think they are only taking a bow."
"If individuals are more concerned with pleasing men than pleasing God, then they suffer from the same virus Satan had, for there are many situations where seeking the praise of men will clearly result in their hurting, not helping, mankind for they will do expedient and temporary things instead of those which are lasting and beneficial.
"How much more satisfying it is when we receive the praise of God, knowing that it is fully justified and that his love and respect for us will persist, when usually the praise of men is fleeting and most disappointing."
(Quote by N. Eldon Tanner, found on p45 of the Book of Mormon Student Manual Religion 121 and 122)
