"We wish our names eternally to live; Wild dream! which ne'er had haunted human thought, Had not our natures been eternal too."

It's much nicer to be praised than to be damned. But you have to have a certain sense of your own priorities and ideas about what works and what doesn't because otherwise, if you're just looking for eternal validation all the time, you can be motivated by the wrong things and I don't think it's as personally satisfying in your own work.
