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.
-Fyodor M. Dostoevsky
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.
Do we not realise that self-respect comes with self-reliance?
-A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
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
Self-respect is the cornerstone of all virtue.
-John Herschel
Respect yourself and others will respect you.
