Sheer flattery got me into the theater. Flattery always works with me particularly the flattery of women.

I trust it will not be giving away professional secrets to say that many readers would be surprised perhaps shocked at the questions which some newspaper editors will put to a defenseless woman under the guise of flattery.

We should keep silent about those in power to speak well of them almost implies flattery to speak ill of them while they are alive is dangerous and when they are dead is cowardly.

Flattery is a kind of bad money to which our vanity gives us currency.

Flattery is like cologne water to be smelt not swallowed.

The best form of flattery is to be admired imitated or respected. I've always felt proud our fans look up to us or feel we are inspirational.
