“But when I tell him he hates flatterers, He says he does, being then most flattered”
William Shakespeare
“To me this world is all one continued vision of fancy or imagination, and I feel flattered when I am told so. What is it sets Homer, Virgil and Milton in so high a rank of art? Why is the Bible more entertaining and instructive than any other book? Is it not because they are addressed to the imagination, which is spiritual sensation, and but immediately to the understanding or reason?”
William Blake
“He that loves to be flattered is worthy o' the flatterer.”
“Often times I'm confronted with a quote that I don't remember saying. So, on one hand it's very flattering, it is just so surreal.”
Will Ferrell
“Some folks are continually making changes. I flatter myself that I like new ventures and new experiences. But when it comes to fundamentals I believe in finding the right foundations and building on them. I'm a poor changer.”
William Danforth
“Thus when we fondly flatter our desires,Our best conceits do prove the greatest liars.”
Michael Drayton
“When kids hear about business today, it's often not in a flattering light. I would hope that we have presented business to them in a better way. We want them to know that most businesses are run by people trying to do good things and improve economic opportunities for people in their communities.”
