Also, here are some bonus quotes about compliments and my interpretations of what they each mean: "A compliment is something like a kiss through a veil" -Victor Hugo Ol’ Frenchy Pants is saying that compliments are nice but no substitute for actual gestures of affection and friendship. Until accompanied with action compliments are just so many pretty words. "Ah, nowadays we are all of us so hard up, that the only pleasant things to pay are compliments. They're the only things we can pay."-Oscar Wilde This is one of those things that doesn’t really mean anything and is just clever Oscar Wilde wordplay but if you say it out loud in a really pompous British accent it sounds brilliant.
