Charm is a way of getting the answer yes without having asked any clear question.

No one has it who isn't capable of genuinely liking others, at least at the actual moment of meeting and speaking. Charm is always genuine; it may be superficial but it isn't false.

Charm is a product of the unexpected.

Rarity gives a charm; so early fruits and winter roses are the most prized; and coyness sets off an extravagant mistress, while the door always open tempts no suitor.

A plain woman is one who, however beautiful, neglects to charm.

Charm is the ability to make someone think that both of you are quite wonderful.

If most men and women were forced to rely upon physical charm to attract lovers, their sexual lives would be not only meager but in a youth-worshiping country like America painfully brief.
