Remember, I’m the guy who didn’t want the referendum – I wouldn’t have had it if I’d been prime minister.

Ben Foster

A flippant, frivolous man may ridicule others, may controvert them, scorn them; but he who has any respect for himself seems to have renounced the right of thinking meanly of others.

I don’t envy or much respect people who are completely politicised.

Bill Nighy
If democracy is to be an articulation of mutual respect, a leader in a democracy leads by showing respect to all.
Abhijit Banerjee

Curtis Mayfield
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.
John Stuart Mill
I was silent as a child, and silenced as a young woman; I am taking my lumps and bumps for being a big mouth, now, but usually from those whose opinion I don’t respect.
Sandra Cisneros
I have so much respect for athletes like LeBron James. I get motivation from them because I know how many hours they put into it. It takes a lot of hard work and drive.
Ciara
When people do not respect us we are sharply offended; yet in his private heart no man much respects himself.
Mark Twain
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.
Anne Lamott
The final test of a gentleman is his respect for those who can be of no possible service to him.
William Lyon Phelps
Hardly can it be judged whether it be better for mankind to believe that the gods have regard of us, or that they have none, considering that some men have no respect and reverence for the gods, and others so much that their superstition is a shame to them.
Pliny the Elder
Don’t tell your kids you had an easy birth or they won’t respect you. For years I used to wake up my daughter and say, ‘Melissa you ripped me to shreds. Now go back to sleep.’.
Joan Rivers
We should respect all religions and just believe in peace, kindness and harmony.
Ananya Panday
The younger generation is essentially idealistic. This applies to the Iranian youth as well. In addition, the youth in Iran face certain difficulties… the Iranian youth need more freedom. They are struggling for more freedom and democracy. This commands great respect.
Shirin Ebadi
You don’t say hello to Mr. DeNiro? Show the respect, will ya?
Joe Pesci
We ought to thank God for that. Yes, the man who tills the land is more worthy of respect than any.
Nikolai Gogol
For a batsman, the bat is your main weapon and you need to respect it. The more you respect it, the better it helps with your cricket.
Ajinkya Rahane
The sea speaks a language polite people never repeat. It is a colossal scavenger slang and has no respect.
Carl Sandburg
You can be sexy, but respect yourself and make sure you get that respect.
Estelle
The people who harvest America’s food must be treated with respect and earn a living wage.
Frances Beinecke
It is a full time job being honest one moment at a time, remembering to love, to honor, to respect. It is a practice, a discipline, worthy of every moment.
Jasmine Guy
The advertisements in a newspaper are more full knowledge in respect to what is going on in a state or community than the editorial columns are.
Henry Ward Beecher
Respect for right conduct is felt by every body.
Jane Austen
I’ve got a lot of respect for tuba players, just carrying that thing around.
Jim Pattison
Every good relationship, especially marriage, is based on respect. If it’s not based on respect, nothing that appears to be good will last very long.
Amy Grant
In terms of being able to renew my nation, to be able to be able to bring back a devastated country, to restore hope to our people, to lift women and to give them a new horizon, a new ambition and new dreams, in respect of all of that, I think we’ve accomplished it, and I feel very good about that.
Ellen Johnson Sirleaf
Sometimes we are separated by differences, and sometimes we are united by common ideals of respect and compassion.
Paul Watson
I hope my music can help many nations all over the world see that the true things come out of the earth, and then they go back into the earth. But the true love you have to find within yourself and learn to respect one another from nation to nation.
Charles Bradley
Sexuality surrounds us like a dangerous aura. The same reverence that is given to the spirit is not given to the flesh. We have had a sexual revolution, but the sexual revolution only has made sex more pervasive. It hasn’t granted the level of reverence and respect that it should have.
Gioconda Belli
As all human beings are, in my view, creatures of God’s design, we must respect all other human beings. That does not mean I have to agree with their choices or agree with their opinions, but indeed I respect them as human beings.
Stockwell Day
The federal government has sponsored research that has produced a tomato that is perfect in every respect, except that you can’t eat it. We should make every effort to make sure this disease, often referred to as ‘progress’, doesn’t spread.
Andy Rooney
I have a relationship with God. I do believe in God, The Son, and Holy Ghost. But I respect everybody, and as far as the Muslims go, I like how they live because they have discipline. They have real structure and I like.
Tee Grizzley
I have no respect for the passion of equality, which seems to me merely idealizing envy – I don’t disparage envy, but I don’t accept it as legitimately my master.
Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.
I have such respect for… the Kennedy Center Honors. To be an artist in America and to be honored for it is extraordinary. In Europe, they really honor their artists. And you are on a very high level. And here it’s not as revered as it is in Europe or Russia or anywhere in the world.
Patricia McBride
Because we should always respect other nationalities, I have always tried to play them with dignity.
Ricardo Montalban
I got into acting because my teachers kept nudging me into it. The power a teacher has to influence someone is so great. I can’t think of a profession I have more respect for.
Jon Hamm
Your private life is your private life and you keep it to yourself. You get more respect that way.
Jay Kay
We must respect the referee every time.
Claudio Ranieri
When men and women are able to respect and accept their differences then love has a chance to blossom.
John Gray
The liberties and freedoms which we hold dear and we recognize and cherish and respect guide the way we gather information in the United States.
John Ashcroft
I look up to Gigi Hadid. I love where she’s taken herself, I love what brands she’s working on. I respect her because I understand… I mean, girls like her open the doors for girls like me. So all I can do is thank her.
Alexis Ren
Obedience is a strong virtue, capable of making me master of my emotions by giving me more strength to conquer my pride as I submit to those above me out of respect for their God-given authority and those below me out of love.
Mother Angelica
You can have a certain arrogance, and I think that’s fine, but what you should never lose is the respect for the others.
Steffi Graf
I have no plans to go public if I get into a relationship. I will do my best to safeguard the privacy of the person I love and respect her feelings.
Song Joong-ki
I accept you, and you get the same respect from me whether you are black, white, gay straight, Asian, bisexual, Australian, tall, fat, whatever it is. We are all people, and I look at the people of the world the same way, as my brothers and sisters.
Nash Grier
I have nothing against respecting people who lived before, but we have no responsibility toward them.
Leon Kass
Economics is a subject that does not greatly respect one’s wishes.
Nikita Khrushchev
Knowledge will give you power, but character respect.
Bruce Lee
Discipline is based on pride, on meticulous attention to details, and on mutual respect and confidence. Discipline must be a habit so ingrained that it is stronger than the excitement of the goal or the fear of failure.
Gary Ryan Blair
I have respect for what other people believe. What I believe in my own life is that it’s a search for how I can do things better, whether it’s being a better man or a better father or finding ways for myself to improve.
Tom Cruise
Property is intended to serve life, and no matter how much we surround it with rights and respect, it has no personal being. It is part of the earth man walks on. It is not man.
Martin Luther King, Jr.
Be modest, be respectful of others, try to understand.
Lakhdar Brahimi
If a person studies too much and exhausts his reflective powers, he will be confused, and will not be able to apprehend even that which had been within the power of his apprehension. For the powers of the body are all alike in this respect.
Maimonides
I respect everybody. You don’t have to earn my respect. You earn my disrespect.
Charlie Murphy
Math is the great equalizer. If you can do the numbers, the boys have to respect you.
Audrey MacLean
I have tremendous respect for my colleagues.
Anish Giri
Football is a great deal like life in that it teaches that work, sacrifice, perseverance, competitive drive, selflessness and respect for authority is the price that each and every one of us must pay to achieve any goal that is worthwhile.
Vince Lombardi
I want to make sure that people understand that, behind this national conversation around transgender rights, there are real people who hurt when they’re mocked, who hurt when they’re discriminated against, and who just want to be treated with dignity and respect.
Sarah McBride
All I ever seek from good deeds is a measure of respect.
Walter Annenberg
Respect for the truth comes close to being the basis for all morality.
Frank Herbert
All great chefs have two things in common. First, they respect nature as the true artist, and they are just cooks. Second, everything that they do is an extension of them as a person.
Marco Pierre White
I respect faith, but doubt is what gives you an education.
Wilson Mizner
There’s a reason why the Foo Fighters don’t blast out Nirvana songs every night: because we have a lot of respect for them. You know, that’s hallowed ground. We have to be careful. We have to tread lightly. We have talked about it before, but the opportunity hasn’t really come up, or it just hasn’t felt right.
Dave Grohl
Every person has their own opinion and I respect that. Not everybody is going to like you.
Ayoze Perez
I have no respect for acting where I’m concerned.
Sterling Hayden
Let them hate me, provided they respect my conduct.
Tiberius
I’m just trying to approach what I make with as much respect and research as I can, and just make it with a good heart.
Garth Davis
The whole concept of treating people with dignity and respect is a concept that isn’t a business concept, it’s a life concept. It’s who you are at the end of the day.
Greg Brenneman
I believe in one power, and that is the hand of God. I respect all religions.
Lata Mangeshkar
I respect everybody, but at the same time, I carry myself with an aura that demands respect, too.
Lil’ Kim
I have such respect for ‘Democracy Now!’
Alice Walker
I am not religious. I do not believe that personhood is conferred upon conception. But I also do not believe that a human embryo is the moral equivalent of a hangnail and deserves no more respect than an appendix.
Charles Krauthammer
I respect people who can do both careers, like Will Smith and a couple of other people who have done it, but I just don’t know when they sleep.
Val Kilmer
As you get older, you grow and mature, and that should never stop. As soon as you stop growing, you’re done living. I’ll always be growing, forever learning, forever taking in advice from people I deeply respect.
Odell Beckham, Jr.
I firmly believe that respect is a lot more important, and a lot greater, than popularity.
Julius Erving
Australia – not western in geography, of course, but in every other respect for sure (it certainly doesn’t want to be regarded as Asian, God forbid) – loves nothing more than to throw its weight around in South-East Asia by playing peacekeeper, carrying out its role as the United States’ regional policeman.
Martin Jacques
I’m kind of a good girl – and I’m not. I’m a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect. I’m a bad girl because I like to tease. I know that I have sex appeal in my deck of cards. But I like to get people thinking. That’s what the stories in my music do.
Katy Perry
I respect myself and insist upon it from everybody. And because I do it, I then respect everybody, too.
Maya Angelou
I don’t do celebrity endorsements. My work with Conservation International is a good use of whatever celebrity I might have to draw attention to important problems. I have the same responsibility as everyone to reduce consumption and to teach children to respect the environment.
Harrison Ford
Do we not realize that self respect comes with self reliance?
A. P. J. Abdul Kalam
I think Keira Knightley is amazing, and I’ve heard also that she is one of the coolest, most down-to-earth, brilliant girls, and I really look up to her in that respect. She’s got it all, really, and I think she’s made interesting, bold choices in her work.
Lily James
I think Maine needs people. It needs diversity. It needs to be able to respect people. Openness is crucial for this state because we don’t want to be known for having the oldest state in the nation. We want young families.
John Baldacci
Thanks to ‘Eega,’ people respect me as actor. That abundance of respect is what pulls me towards cinema.
Sudeep
We should all consider each other as human beings, and we should respect each other.
Malala Yousafzai
I have no confidence issues with the impact or the quality of the music. No one in hip-hop, before this point and to this point, with all due respect, has done this.
Mos Def
I always have tried to treat people with respect, the way I want to be treated.
Derek Jeter
My wife and I have a schizophrenic son. We didn’t want to accept this for 30 years, so we put him under great pressure when we shouldn’t have. He just wanted to be looked after, and we didn’t respect that. We tried to make him independent.
James D. Watson
This year, as we celebrate the 230th anniversary of America’s independence, please remember the symbols that are sacred to this country. Fly Old Glory high and show your respect and admiration for this great nation and the values we hold dear.
Kenny Marchant
It’s always important to respect your opponent.
Ajinkya Rahane
Respect the masterpiece. It is true reverence to man. There is no quality so great, none so much needed now.
Frank Lloyd Wright
I’m not religious, but I believe that what I have is a gift, and I respect it and live up to it.
Sugar Ray Leonard
Someone like Bruno Sammartino should never be a jobber on a video game, so and so forth. I think you have to pay respect.
Bret Hart
Conservatism discards Prescription, shrinks from Principle, disavows Progress; having rejected all respect for antiquity, it offers no redress for the present, and makes no preparation for the future.
Benjamin Disraeli
Honest communication is built on truth and integrity and upon respect of the one for the other.
Benjamin E. Mays
If I despised myself, it would be no compensation if everyone saluted me, and if I respect myself, it does not trouble me if others hold me lightly.
Max Nordau
All you have to do is respect me. Use the right words. If you don’t consider me a woman, then use trans woman. Whatever works for you. But don’t try to use something that’s a slur or something that’s meant to degrade who we are.
Carmen Carrera
Software eventually and necessarily gained the same respect as any other discipline.
Margaret H. Hamilton
Mankind’s true moral test, its fundamental test (which lies deeply buried from view), consists of its attitude towards those who are at its mercy: animals. And in this respect mankind has suffered a fundamental debacle, a debacle so fundamental that all others stem from it.
Milan Kundera
My wife totally backs the way I am on stage; that’s one of the amazing things about her. I have 120 per cent respect for her when I’m on stage, so there are definitely certain things I would never do.
Gerard Way
We will not agree on every issue. But let us respect those differences and respect one another. Let us recognize that we do not serve an ideology or a political party; we serve the people.
John Lynch
My respect for animators and animation directors has gone way, way up and it is just not something you can phone in.
Gore Verbinski
Compassion, loyalty, and respect sum up love for me – it’s a mix that’s very rare to find and even harder to imbibe.
Jennifer Winget
But the leaders of the OIC could not even accept Mahathir’s proposal, yet they talk about respect and honour.
Abu Bakar Bashir
Peking welcomed me with tremendous parades and gun salutes. The people with me are proud of me, proud that our downtrodden country has taken its place among the great nations. And now, people of America, I ask you, why didn’t Eisenhower accord me the same respect?
Sukarno
You’re morally tainted if you don’t treat both the accuser and the accused with fairness and with respect, and with due process.
John Kennedy
Women live lives of continual apology. They are born and raised to take the blame for other people’s behavior. If they are treated without respect, they tell themselves that they have failed to earn respect. If their husbands do not fancy them, it is because they are unattractive.
Germaine Greer
Teaching the history of the British Empire links in with that of the world: for better and for worse, the Empire made us what we are, forming our national identity. A country that does not understand its own history is unlikely to respect that of others.
Antony Beevor
I adore adverbs; they are the only qualifications I really much respect.
Henry James
I am absolutely overjoyed to be joining ‘Strictly.’ I have so much respect for the other judges and hope to add my own bit of sparkle to the show.
Motsi Mabuse
Having the respect of your peers means the world to me.
Alex Rodriguez
We live in a diverse society – in fact, a diverse world – and we must learn to live in peace and with respect for each other.
Stan Lee
A key part of our democracy is having a marketplace of ideas, open forums where people with diverse viewpoints can be heard and treated with respect.
Mikie Sherrill
Respect the game on and off the field and if you do that, you’re going to have the respect among your peers.
Cody Bellinger
Those people behind the mosque have to respect, have to appreciate and have to defer to the people of New York. The wound is still there. Just because the wound is healing you can’t say, ‘Let’s just go back to where we were pre-9/11.
Al-Waleed bin Talal
Global markets must be balanced by global values such as respect for human rights and international law, democracy, security and sustainable economic and environmental development.
Anna Lindh
Lots of army officers… a large number still believe that I have done my best for this country. They respect me.
Abdul Qadeer Khan
We can win respect in the world only if we are strong internally and can banish poverty and unemployment from our country.
Lal Bahadur Shastri
In things to be seen at once, much variety makes confusion, another vice of beauty. In things that are not seen at once, and have no respect one to another, great variety is commendable, provided this variety transgress not the rules of optics and geometry.
Christopher Wren
I will take every match seriously and respect every opponent.
Lin Dan
I grew up in a family of strong women and I owe any capacity I have to understand women to my mother and big sister. They taught me to respect women in a way where I’ve always felt a strong emotional connection to women, which has also helped me in the way I approach my work as an actor.
Ryan Gosling
I have respect for beer.
Russell Crowe
Who could look on these monuments without reflecting on the vanity of mortals in thus offering up testimonials of their respect for persons of whose very names posterity is ignorant?
Marguerite Gardiner
My only rule: I never photographed the face of the dead, ever, out of respect for the families.
David Douglas Duncan
I can respect different opinions, because everybody has a story.
Richa Chadha
Love is about mutual respect, apart from attraction.
George Best
I respect Test cricket a lot. Once I got into the Test team, I learnt so much about international cricket and realised it’s not so different.
K. L. Rahul
I believe that President Nixon was right in what he did at Watergate. Lack of respect for authority and things like socialism are turning this into a weak, effeminate country.
Tiny Tim
Respect is important, and if you don’t have it you won’t be on the professional level very long.
Beth Phoenix
Often we mistake stability, in terms of security and economic activity, to mean a country is doing well. We forget the third and important pillar: rule of law and respect for human rights.
Kofi Annan
I’m a good girl because I really believe in love, integrity, and respect. I’m a bad girl because I like to tease.
Katy Perry
You respect all of these people that you know in the business as actors. And they sort of turn around and say, we really like your work. It’s a nice acknowledgment.
Lucy Liu
I respect all the fighters. I respect Georges St-Pierre because Georges has a great story in the UFC. I respect all the fighters in here because this is the biggest sport in the world.
Anderson Silva
If we desire respect for the law, we must first make the law respectable.
Louis D. Brandeis
To be one, to be united is a great thing. But to respect the right to be different is maybe even greater.
Bono
In the early 1940s, as a young teenager, I was utterly appalled by the racist and jingoist hysteria of the anti-Japanese propaganda. The Germans were evil, but treated with some respect: They were, after all, blond Aryan types, just like our imaginary self-image. Japanese were mere vermin, to be crushed like ants.
Noam Chomsky
I just want people to respect what I do.
J Balvin
Why is she Mrs. C.J. Walker? It really was a matter of her trying to insist that people respect her, because during that time, white people would call any black woman ‘Sally.’ ‘Aunt Sally.’ So this was like… you can’t call me that.
A’Lelia Bundles
Show respect to all people, but grovel to none.
Tecumseh
The only respect you should have is the one you earn.
Stellan Skarsgard
As women, we need to give the right upbringing to our sons so that they respect, protect, and help the weaker sex instead of bullying them.
Raveena Tandon
I believe that ‘Food is a giver.’ It gives you nutrition, health, and at times can give you recognition, like it did in my case, and you got to treat it with that kind of respect.
Ranveer Brar
High heels. I respect people who love them; they’re just not for me!
Sophie Hawley-Weld
If it wasn’t for women, I wouldn’t be here. I’m a mamma’s boy at heart. I love my mom. I have the deepest, utmost respect for women.
Roman Reigns
Women always left me because I wouldn’t commit, but then nothing changes a relationship like commitment. If you move in with someone, you lose all respect for them.
Lemmy
Every color I can think of and nationality, we were all touched by Dr. King because he made us like each other and respect each other.
Lena Horne
In the ’60s and ’70s and early ’80s, the trainers would grind you, and eventually they would break something – they would break an ankle in ways that it would heal. It was just the way of the business, to ensure that you learned respect for wrestling.
Dwayne Johnson
Let every man be respected as an individual and no man idolized.
Albert Einstein
That’s what people respect, the fact that I wasn’t a chump that laid on his back and gave up.
Mike Tyson
Clearly, the response to terrorism and violent extremism must respect human rights and comply with international law. That is not just a question of justice but of effectiveness.
Antonio Guterres
If I were to agree to write the music for your beautiful poem, it would tie your poem up for some years as I have agreements and obligations which I must respect.
Jules Massenet
I believe family first. Blood is thicker than water. I grew up like that, and I want to continue to keep that goal in my heart. Just family first! Just honesty, integrity, and respect. All of that. I live by the code of those things. If you do that you’ll be fine.
Cory Hardrict
More than anything, you have to respect the game and do things the right way.
Asdrubal Cabrera
While I will always have the utmost respect for the superhuman out-of-bounds freestyle and extreme stunts that seem to continually progress beyond our imaginable limits, my highest appreciation goes out to the simple rider who’s out there just for the experience.
Craig Kelly
If political leaders want respect, they will begin by enforcing the global rule of law.
Sharan Burrow
It is hard to feel individually responsible with respect to the invisible processes of a huge and distant government.
John W. Gardner
I’m free. I just do what I want, say what I want, say how I feel, and I don’t try to hurt nobody. I just try to make sure that I don’t compromise my art in any kind of way, and I think people respect that.
Erykah Badu
Respect for the individual is one of our core beliefs at Walmart.
Doug McMillon
I have such a respect for comedy. It’s a lot harder than doing drama, in my opinion; you have to have sort of an innate sense of humor. There are rules to comedy you can learn. But ultimately, it really does require a certain point of view on the world, and that really does appeal to me.
Elizabeth Banks
I’m sick of just liking people. I wish to God I could meet somebody I could respect.
J. D. Salinger
But every great scripture, whether Hebrew, Indian, Persian, or Chinese, apart from its religious value will be found to have some rare and special beauty of its own; and in this respect the original Bible stands very high as a monument of sublime poetry and of artistic prose.
Lafcadio Hearn
Simple ingredients, treated with respect… put them together and you will always have a great dish.
Jose Andres
If you have ten thousand regulations you destroy all respect for the law.
Winston Churchill
I’ve always had great respect for Paddington because he is amusingly English and eccentric. He is a great British institution and my generation grew up with the books and then Michael Horden’s animations.
Stephen Fry
Democracy arises out of the notion that those who are equal in any respect are equal in all respects; because men are equally free, they claim to be absolutely equal.
Aristotle
When about to commit a base deed, respect thyself, though there is no witness.
Ausonius
We need to respect the oceans and take care of them as if our lives depended on it. Because they do.
Sylvia Earle
If you are killed because you are a writer, that’s the maximum expression of respect, you know.
Mario Vargas Llosa
In the long term we can hope that religion will change the nature of man and reduce conflict. But history is not encouraging in this respect. The bloodiest wars in history have been religious wars.
Richard M. Nixon
The older generation had greater respect for land than science. But we live in an age when science, more than soil, has become the provider of growth and abundance. Living just on the land creates loneliness in an age of globality.
Shimon Peres
When you’re successful, there will be friends, people, VIPs rallying around you. When you’re down and out, you’re all alone. That’s why it’s important to be a good person. Because whether you’re a successful cricketer or not can always change, but the respect you earn by being the person you are stays with you.
Suresh Raina
I like a man who can respect a woman. When he’s real attentive, I think that is very manly. To respect a woman is divine.
Lea Seydoux
My one thing is respect. I don’t care about anything else. You should respect everyone around you – the people who work for you, peers. Be classy.
Charli XCX
The old-timers schooled me good. They brainwashed me to respect music, whether we were playing rockabilly or blues or rock and roll.
Dr. John
The weather doesn’t respect political or geographic boundaries: we’re all living under the same sky. And so weather prediction has been a marvel not only of technology but also of international cooeperation.
Hannah Fry
True humility is intelligent self respect which keeps us from thinking too highly or too meanly of ourselves. It makes us modest by reminding us how far we have come short of what we can be.
Ralph W. Sockman
Leadership is diving for a loose ball, getting the crowd involved, getting other players involved. It’s being able to take it as well as dish it out. That’s the only way you’re going to get respect from the players.
Larry Bird
I always knew I wanted to play golf and go to college. I try hard to be a positive role model, especially on the golf course. I try to carry myself well, and don’t do anything outrageous. I try to play the game like a gentleman and give everyone respect. That’s how the game should be played.
Dustin Johnson
My standard for the women in my life is like, ‘If no man can treat you better than I can treat you, they can’t come.’ You gotta step up to the plate. With respect, with acknowledgment, with support.
Aldis Hodge
I want to change history, do something important in my life, and influence individuals like we have with millions of small businesses on Alibaba. Then they love and respect you because you made their life important.
Jack Ma
We will respect all our opponents, as we always do.
Sergio Ramos
Is woman a religion? Well, perhaps you will have the chance of judging for yourselves if you go to America. There you will find men treating women with just the same respect formerly accorded only to religious dignitaries or to great nobles.
Lafcadio Hearn
Wherever I look, I see signs of the commandment to honor one’s parents and nowhere of a commandment that calls for the respect of a child.
Alice Miller
I believe that working with good people matters because then the work environment is good. If there is a sense of respect and belief among the people you work with, that is when good work is done.
Ranbir Kapoor
I was a music fan first way before I started creating it, so I still get giddy when I get to be around people that I respect so much.
Zac Brown
Coming from an Asian culture, I was always taught to respect my elders, to be a better listener than a talker.
Lisa Ling
Climate change does not respect border; it does not respect who you are – rich and poor, small and big. Therefore, this is what we call ‘global challenges,’ which require global solidarity.
Ban Ki-moon
I have a great love and respect for religion, great love and respect for atheism. What I hate is agnosticism, people who do not choose.
Orson Welles
With my wife I don’t get no respect. I made a toast on her birthday to ‘the best woman a man ever had.’ The waiter joined me.
Rodney Dangerfield
One’s nativity is not of his own choosing, but whatever it may be, it is entitled to respect; and all nations have honorable place in the world’s family.
Paul P. Harris
You can’t allow tradition to get in the way of innovation. There’s a need to respect the past, but it’s a mistake to revere your past.
Bob Iger
My parents loved each other. I was raised in a house of total love and respect. My dad worked very hard and my mother was incredibly devoted to him. I can unequivocally, without any peradventure of doubt, tell you that I was raised with the kind of love that we only dream of.
James Woods
As the mother of two daughters, I have great respect for women. And I don’t ever want to lose that.
Vera Wang
I have the most profound respect for the Department of Justice and the FTC. We in Europe are a younger and I would say junior institution to the historical antitrust experience of the US.
Mario Monti
With all due respect, the Mona Lisa is overrated.
Paulo Coelho
It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right.
Henry David Thoreau
I respect anyone who could take a stagecoach ride from the East Coast to the West. You had to be a very special kind of person to survive that because it’s the most uncomfortable ride in the world.
Sinbad
As long as I value what I have and respect my cricket, I know I am on the right path.
Ajinkya Rahane
Internationalism is a community theory of society which is founded on economic, spiritual, and biological facts. It maintains that respect for a healthy development of human society and of world civilization requires that mankind be organized internationally.
Christian Lous Lange
Respect your parents. What they tell you is true. Hard work, dedication and faith will get you anything. Imagination will drive itself. You can get anything you want, but you have to have faith behind all your ideas. Stick to your goals and have an undying faith.
Russell Simmons
Children need teachers who have stars in their eyes themselves and who treat them with respect.
May-Britt Moser
I respect cats that can rap and everything, but the artist that inspires me is Turf Talk.
E-40
Maharashtrians in America have a Maharashtra mandal every year. You know when they celebrate it? On July 4, the American Independence Day. That’s respect for local culture.
Raj Thackeray
I’ve got no respect for any young man who won’t join the colors.
Nathan Bedford Forrest
In order to exist, man must rebel, but rebellion must respect the limits that it discovers in itself – limits where minds meet, and in meeting, begin to exist.
Albert Camus

Scott Morrison

A. B. Yehoshua
Just as the common law derives from ancient precedents – judges’ decisions – rather than statutes, baseball’s codes are the game’s distilled mores. Their unchanged purpose is to show respect for opponents and the game. In baseball, as in the remainder of life, the most important rules are unwritten. But not unenforced.

A person who can go out and get 40 is going to get a lot more respect than somebody who goes out and holds somebody to two points. It’s just the nature of the game. It doesn’t bother me.
Draymond Green
Different people have different opinions, and it’s okay to respect all of them.
Juan Pablo Galavis
My wife loves to get all dressed up and go out, and I’m this gloomy Virgo. It works because of the mutual recognition that we are two democratic narcissists. She does what she has to do, and I do what I have to do. We respect that.

Dan Rosensweig
I will respect the limits of my experience but that won’t stop me from trying to lead by example of my work. Being a good teammate and picking them up on and off the field is a simple goal of mine.
Anthony Rizzo
I think I’m a natural-born leader. I know how to bow down to authority if it’s authority that I respect.
Tupac Shakur
I enjoy looking at other people’s products and learning from them. We take all of our competitors very seriously, as you know. You have to respect Intel. But we have our own tricks up our sleeves.

I respect the ones who make it and leave their home base, but I’m good in Colombia.

Ajay Mehta
All first responders do noble work, and all of them deserve our respect and our appreciation.
William Barr
I respect my father as a father, but I also respect him as an honorable chairman.

Michelle Obama
I’m not totally innocent, and I do date. But as a young woman, I also demand respect.

Ambrose Bierce
I respect and value the ideals of rugged individualism and self-reliance. But rugged individualism didn’t defeat the British, it didn’t get us to the moon, build our nation’s highways, or map the human genome. We did that together. This is the high call of patriotism.
Cory Booker
If we have no respect for our viewers, then how can we have any respect for ourselves and what we do?

I like children; I like ’em, and I respect ’em. Pretty much all the honest truth-telling there is in the world is done by them.

Nonetheless, do I have respect for people who believe in the hereafter? Of course I do. I might add, perhaps even a touch of envy too, because of the solace.
Studs Terkel
Most of those coming from the mainland are very destitute, almost naked.

Harriet Tubman
Respect and consistency, as hard work during the week is the only way to earn your place.

Ben Roethlisberger
It’s a total big difference between a person that got lyrics and a person that can make hit singles. I’m a person that can make some hit singles. I’m not in no booth trying to be a lyrical genius.

Pavel Durov
Everyone should be respected as an individual, but no one idolized.
Albert Einstein

John Lydon
I always respect a woman.
Enrique Iglesias

If we are not free, no one will respect us.
