compliments quotes

• Get not your friends by bare compliments, but by giving them sensible tokens of your love. ( Socrates) [compliments/love]
• Would you convey my compliments to the purist who reads your proofs and tell him or her that I write in a sort of broken-down patois which is something like the way a Swiss waiter talks, and that when I split an infinitive, God damn it, I split it so it will stay split, and when I interrupt the velvety smoothness of my more or less literate syntax with a few sudden words of bar-room vernacular, that is done with the eyes wide open and the mind relaxed but attentive. (Raymond Chandler) [compliments/god/willpower/more]
• Compliments cost nothing, yet many pay dear for them. (Thomas Fuller) [compliments]
• 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. (Samuel Johnson) [compliments/appetite]
• Never praise a sister to a sister in the hope of your compliments reaching he proper ears. (Rudyard Kipling) [compliments]
• Women are never disarmed by compliments. Men always are. That is the difference between the two sexes. (Oscar Wilde) [women/compliments/men]
