Summary

This quote suggests that charm can be used as a subtle form of persuasion or manipulation. Rather than directly and explicitly asking for a favor or desired outcome, charm allows individuals to influence others in a more indirect manner. By using charm to win people over, individuals can increase their likelihood of receiving a positive response without having to explicitly pose a question or request. Charm has the power to subtly guide others towards a desired outcome, making it an effective tool in social interactions and negotiations.

(About Love)The most important thing in life, and you can't tell whether people have it or not. Surely this is wrong? Surely people who are happy should look happy, at all times, no matter how much money they have or how uncomfortable their shoes are or how little their child is sleeping; and people who are doing OK but have still not found their soul-mate should look, I don't know, anxious, like Billy Crystal in When Harry Met Sally; and people who are desperate should wear something, a yellow ribbon maybe, which would allow them to be identified by similar desperate people.
