"Act well your part; there all honor lies." -Alexander Pope
Doing good on your own brings in massive amounts of honor. When you do things for a chance of getting recognized or praised there is no honor. You did good but not for the right reasons. Sometimes people do good in hopes of being portrayed as nice or for getting into heaven. I don't think there's any honor in that case. Overall if you wish for personal gain the good deed isn't so good anymore.
