I care not so much what I am to others as what I am to myself. I will be rich by myself, and not by borrowing.
-Michel De Montaigne
A man’s value depends upon his courage and resolution, his veracity depends upon his traits of nobility and self-respect and his chastity depends upon his sense of honor.
The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.
-Joan Didion
Have respect for the Self and no one can take your self respect.
-Sri Sri Ravi Shankar
To live worthily with self-respect, one has to overcome difficulties. It is out of hard and ceaseless struggle alone that one derives strength, confidence and recognition.
Above the cloud with its shadow is the star with its light. Above all things reverence thyself.
