Never esteem men on account of their riches or their station. Respect goodness, find it where you may.

I got a lot of things that society had promised would make me whole and fulfilled - all the things that the culture tells you from preschool on will quiet the throbbing anxiety inside you - stature, the respect of colleagues, maybe even a kind of low-grade fame.

When I was young there was no respect for the young, and now that I am old there is no respect for the old. I missed out coming and going.

When a woman removes her garment, she also removes the respect that is hers.

I have a rule on my team: when we talk to one another, we look each other right in the eye, because I think it's tough to lie to somebody. You give respect to somebody.
