Actually, Shakespeare's line is "I will praise any man who will praise me" and occurs in Act II Scene 6 of Antony and Cleopatra. Enobarbus, one of Antony's men, is talking to Menas, one of Pompey's men. Menas is a sailor, Enobarbus a soldier. Enobarbus tells Menas that he has done well by water, and Mena replies "And you by land" whereupon Enobarbus says "I will praise any man who will praise me; though it cannot be denied what I have done by land." Basically he means he is open for compliments.
