“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?

William Blake
“But when I tell him he hates flatterers, He says he does, being then most flattered”
William Shakespeare
“He that loves to be flattered is worthy o' the flatterer.”
“It's very flattering. The only thing I feel sometimes is that the head coach gets too much credit. I think sometimes it ought to be coaching staff of the year.”
Joe Paterno
“I'm very impressed. Everyone's goal is to win a championship, and I feel flattered that they think I'm the guy that can lead them to that. I believe that I can, as well.”
Drew Brees
“They who have reasoned ignorantly, or who have aimed at effecting their personal ends by flattering the popular feeling, have boldly affirmed that 'one man is as good as another;' a maxim that is true in neither nature, revealed morals, nor political theory.”
James F. Cooper
