Quotes about applause, page 18
But when women are moved and lend help, when women, who are by nature calm and controlled, give encouragement and applause, when virtuous and knowledgeable women grace the endeavor with their sweet love, then it is invincible.

People do still cheer for the President. And some of the military audiences are more likely to cheer than others. I have seen him speak lately in front of groups like Freedom House, where the applause was a long time coming.

Because We Were Too Careful...
we tiptoed
not to earn their anger
and we become
ballet dancers
much to their pleasures
and we earn
the big clap
those civilized
ovation and
warm public
applause
yet look at us now
old fools
never been really happy
even for
just once.

The Mountains—grow unnoticed
757
The Mountains—grow unnoticed—
Their Purple figures rise
Without attempt—Exhaustion—
Assistance—or Applause—
In Their Eternal Faces
The Sun—with just delight
Looks long—and last—and golden—
For fellowship—at night—

Behind The Scenes...
imagine when
the curtains fall
and when
the lights turn off
imagine
how tears fall
despite
the applause
imagine
how the earth
itself becoming an
empty space
the mind
a desert and
the body a sprinkle
of sands
the lips as cold
as dawn
chalice

Catwalk
she's perfected the placement of each paw
out from the alleyways of backyard walls
balances on chalk-marks
where the strobe-light falls
pussycats her shoulders
at the back-cloth of applause
wide-eyed and breathless
at the sheathing of her claws

Clap Your Hands
Cause, because, course, caution;
And like a bullock in the land of your muse,
But clap your hands in applause when you have love.
Be still and know that i am near,
And try to share your mind with others;
For the honourable men and women are closer to you as well.

If One Road Is Closed
If one road is closed
Another opens.
If you do mistake,
Repent erases.
If you lose your heart,
Despair raises.
If you brag of you,
Downfall accesses.
If applause others,
Will be applauded.
If you scold someone,
You must be scolded.
If love the mankind,
You too will be loved.

To Nobodaddy
Why art thou silent & invisible
Father of jealousy
Why dost thou hide thyself in clouds
From every searching Eye
Why darkness & obscurity
In all thy words & laws
That none dare eat the fruit but from
The wily serpents jaws
Or is it because Secresy
gains females loud applause
poem by William Blake from Songs and Ballads (1793)

Easy Come And Easy Go
Applause! You gained attention
Your careful well spoken lines
How you smiled so proudly
Fool you are I had seen the signs
Easy Come And Easy Go
Awarded! For your performances
I will walk proudly far far away
Defeated by your emotions
I've only now one thing left to day
Easy Come And Easy Go
