Don't tell a woman she's pretty; tell her there's no other woman like her, and all roads will open to you.

If you can't get a compliment any other way, pay yourself one.

A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil.

Hunger is never delicate; they who are seldom gorged to the full with praise may be safely fed with gross compliments, for the appetite must be satisfied before it is disgusted.

The greatest compliment that was ever paid me was when one asked what I thought, and attended to my answer.

When millions applaud you seriously ask yourself what harm you have done; and when they disapprove you, what good.

I can live for two months on a good compliment.

Women are never disarmed by compliments. Men always are. That is the difference between the two sexes.

I have been complimented many times and they always embarrass me; I always feel that they have not said enough.

Usually we praise only to be praised.
