Compliments win friends, honesty loses them.
Rabindranath Tagore
Image
Compliments of congratulation are always kindly taken, and cost nothing but pen, ink and paper. I consider them as draughts upon good breeding, where the exchange is always greatly in favor of the drawer.
Lord Chesterfield
Image
Compliments make me vain: & when I am vain, I am insolent & overbearing. It is a pity, too, because I love compliments. I love them even when they are not so. My child, I can live on a good compliment two weeks with nothing else to eat.
Mark Twain
Image
Compliments and praise, for their part, are tragic expressions of fulfilled needs
Marshall B. Rosenberg
Image
Compliments and flattery oftenest excite my contempt by the pretension they imply for who is he that assumes to flatter me? To compliment often implies an assumption of superiority in the complimenter. It is, in fact, a subtle detraction.
Henry David Thoreau
Image
Compliments and criticism are all ultimately based on some form of projection.
Billy Corgan
Image
Compliments are only lies in court clothes.
John Sterling
Image
There is a wide difference between general acquaintance and companionship. You may salute a man and exchange compliments with him daily, yet know nothing of his character, his inmost tastes arid feelings.
William Matthews
Image
Nowadays we are all of us so hard up that the only pleasant things to pay are compliments. They’re the only things we can pay.
Oscar Wilde
Image
Dancing, is, for the most part, attended with many amorous smiles, wanton compliments, unchaste kisses, scurrilous songs and sonnets, effeminate music, lust provoking attire, ridiculous love pranks, all which savor only of sensuality, of raging fleshly lusts. Therefore, it is wholly to be abandoned of all good Christians.
William Prynne
Image
If I am good, people compliments me that my voice is like a CD, but whenever my voice condition is not as well and do some mistakes....I tend to sacrifice myself for my next album.
Park Bom
Image
If you're criticized then you can use it as an experience. Compliments, you can't use.
Yoko Ono
Image
I don't like compliments. No. I prefer criticisms prefer to prove them wrong
Paul Scholes
Image
You know you're old when someone compliments you on your alligator shoes, and you're barefoot.
Phyllis Diller
Image
Nothing makes people so worthy of compliments as receiving them. One is more delightful for being told one is delightful-just as one is more angry for being told one is angry.
Katharine Fullerton Gerould
Image
Elizabeth, With my compliments. You will never get your claws into another one of mine. Rot in hell, Nïx clasped her hands over her chest, sighing, He gave you his heart. That's so romantic. So much better than a candy heart. Those get stuck in the fangs, you know.
Kresley Cole
Image
I want to be who I am now. I rock my gray hair because it is a blessing. I colored mine for many years, but I've gotten compliments from so many men and women about being brave enough to sport the gray. I even wear it on the cover of my record. I am comfortable in my skin and I want listeners to feel that as well.
Regina Belle
Image
You look wonderful, Jason said. No compliments, Jason. I'm uncomfortable enough in the lingerie. Then by all means take it off.
Laurell K. Hamilton
Image
Men accept compliments much better than women do. Example: Mitch, you look great. Mitch: Thanks. On the other side: Ruth, you look great. Ruth: I do? Must be the lighting.
Rita Rudner
Image
I've got the public. I don't care about the critics. I did at one time. I don't any more. I did when I needed compliments. But if you get a lot of compliments, you don't need a critic to tell you, 'This should be done another way.'
LeRoy Neiman
Image
There's a lot of intensity when you're on a set. And then it just goes away and no one's giving you attention or flooding you with compliments.
Rose Byrne
Image
The New Year is the season in which custom seems more particularly to authorize civil and harmless lies, under the name of compliments. People reciprocally profess wishes which they seldom form and concern which they seldom feel.
Lord Chesterfield
Image
Never praise a sister to a sister, in the hope of your compliments reaching the proper ears, and so preparing the way for you later on. Sisters are women first, and sisters afterwards and you will find that you do yourself harm.
Rudyard Kipling
Image
Alayana would forget my compliments
