We all deserve to be treated with nothing but respect. In order to command respect from others, we must first and foremost respect ourselves.

Never violate the sacredness of your individual self-respect.

Those who respect others have a self respect. Respect those who have a self respect.

If you want to be respected by others, the great thing is to respect yourself. Only by that, only by self-respect will you compel others to respect you.

Respect yourself and others will respect you.

The really unhappy person is the one who leaves undone what they can do, and starts doing what they don't understand; no wonder they come to grief.
