Dhammapada 227-230

This is an old saying, O Atula, this is not only of today: 

"They blame him who sits silent, they blame him who speaks much, they also blame him who says little; there is no one on earth who is not blamed." 

There never was, there never will be, nor is there now, a man who is always blamed, or a man who is always praised. 

But he whom those who discriminate praise continually day after day, as without blemish, wise, rich in knowledge and virtue, who would dare to blame him, like a coin made of gold from the Gambu river? 

Even the gods praise him, he is praised even by Brahman.
