I don't want to be liked. I want to be respected.

If people don't like me for whatever I do, for being me, then that's too bad. I don't want to change to be something that I'm not for other people to like me.

I take a lot of pride in being myself. I'm comfortable with who I am.

You're stuck with being yourself, so the important thing is to find people who like that.

I don't expect to try to get people to like everything I do. I want them to respect what I do.

You can't respect yourself if you're afraid to be who you are.

I have always wanted to be liked and respected.

I'm not happy all the time, and I wouldn't want to be because that would make me a shallow person. But I do try to find the good in everybody.

I'm basically a very happy person and I don't have to be anybody else.
