It is hard to resist a flatterer who gets it right.
The only reason flattery gets you nowhere is because you always leave something out.
We forgive a flatterer every sin but the sin of omission.
Flattery is a case of hating the sinner, loving the sin.
As much as a flatterer irritates, you can't help forgiving someone so obviously dedicated to the truth.
A skillful flatterer not only says all the right words but knows exactly which ones to put in bold italics.

hhhmmmmm...I like this one: A skillful flatterer not only says all the right words but knows exactly which ones to put in bold italics. Yeah, I agree with you. Way back in the 70's and 80's I experienced that with my admirers...wink!!!
Tooth,
Please stop roaming my archives. I'm worried about you. What if you can't find your way out?
