Self-respect Quotes

Quotations
Quote of the Day

Power doesn't have to show off. Power is confident, self-assuring, self-starting and self-stopping, self-warming and self-justifying. When you have it, you know you have it.
View quotes by Ralph Ellison

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.
View quotes by Fedor Dostoevsky

My team and I have reunited two elements that coexist with difficulty: respect and affection, because when they love you they don't respect you and when they respect you they don't love you.
View quotes by Shakira

'Respect', of course is a tricky term. I may respect your gardening by just letting you get on with it. Or, I may respect it by admiring it and regarding it as a superior way
to garden.
View quotes by Simon Blackburn

Drugs are a waste of time. They destroy your memory and your self-respect and everything that goes along with with your self esteem.
View quotes by Kurt Cobain

In my day, we didn't have self-esteem, we had self-respect, and no more of it than we had earned
View quotes by Jane Haddam

The ruin of the human heart is self-interest, which the American merchant calls self-service. We have become a self-service populace, and all our specious comforts - the automatic elevator, the escalator, the cafeteria - are depriving us of volition and moral and physical energy.
View quotes by Edward Dahlberg

Compassion is the desire that moves the individual self to widen the scope of its self-concern to embrace the whole of the universal self.
View quotes by Arnold Toynbee

The system of nature, of which man is a part, tends to be self-balancing, self-adjusting, self-cleansing. Not so with technology.
View quotes by E F Schumacher

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.
View quotes by J B Priestley

Respect yourself if you would have others respect you.

View quotes by Baltasar Gracian

The duty of man is the same in respect to his own nature as in respect to the nature of all other things, namely not to follow it but to amend it.
View quotes by John Stuart Mill

Often people display a curious respect for a man drunk, rather like the respect of simple races for the insane... There is something awe-inspiring in one who has lost all inhibitions.
View quotes by F Scott Fitzgerald

Thieves respect property. They merely wish the property to become their property that they may more perfectly respect it.
View quotes by Gilbert Keith Chesterton

Compare the demeanours of Flintoff and Rooney, and you'll get what I mean. The respect between the teams was wonderful - and respect for your opponent is better to have in your armoury than contempt.
View quotes by Michael Parkinson

Leadership comes through respect, and a large part of respect is liking someone.
View quotes by Carol Leonard

Why should I 'respect' belief systems that I do not share? I would not be expected to respect the beliefs of flat earthers or those of the people who believed that the Hale-Bopp comet was a recycling facility for dead Californians, and killed themselves in order to join it.
View quotes by Simon Blackburn

Consult your friend on all things, especially on those which respect yourself. His counsel may then be useful where your own self-love might impair your judgment.
View quotes by Seneca

Self-respect is nothing to hide behind. When you need it most it isn't there.
View quotes by Mary Sarton

In taking out an insurance policy one pays for it in dollars and cents, always at liberty to discontinue payments. If, however, woman's premium is a husband, she pays for it with her name, her privacy, her self-respect, her very life, 'until death doth part.'
View quotes by Emma Goldman
