Renown? I've already got more of it than those I respect, and will never have as much as those for whom I feel contempt.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You must renounce all superficiality, all convention, all vanity and delusion.
I respect only those who resist me, but I cannot tolerate them.
I'm just trying to enjoy the fact that I have gained some respect from some people whom I respect.
I've always had a lot of respect from the people I respected.
Respect is one of life's greatest treasures. I mean, what does it all add up to if you don't have that?
I think I have a certain respect for people, you know. And I guess a lot of times I expect that respect to go both ways.
If you don't stand for something, how can anyone respect what you do?
I'll always be in some type of turmoil. So what I've tried to do is just surrender to that.
By adversity are wrought the greatest works of admiration, and all the fair examples of renown, out of distress and misery are grown.
What I have known with respect to myself, has tended much to lessen both my admiration, and my contempt, of others.
