I firmly believe that respect is a lot more important, and a lot greater, than popularity.

You should respect each other and refrain from disputes; you should not, like water and oil, repel each other, but should, like milk and water, mingle together.

To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends; to appreciate the beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch Or a redeemed social condition; to know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded!

Many people resented my impatience and honesty, but I never cared about acceptance as much as I cared about respect.

Let me give you a tip on a clue to men’s characters: the man who damns money has obtained it dishonorably; the man who respects it has earned it.

It is clear that the individual who persecutes a man, his brother, because he is not of the same opinion, is a monster.

Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.

We are all one family in the world. Building a community that empowers everyone to attain their full potential through each of us respecting each other's dignity, rights and responsibilities makes thee world a better place to live.
