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, letter to Gertrude Natkin, 1906 March 2nd
