"I downgrade myself in order to please, but of course it never pleases. It's not realistic to expect someone to feel any more respect for me that I display for myself."
"I can't help people by damaging myself. In fact, if it's beginning to destroy me, I can be confident it's not helping them."
"If someone has his own respect, it can be seen in his posture, his voice, the integrity of his opinions. But it can't be strategy. And it has nothing to do with formality and restraint, because if one loves himself, he can also abandon himself; he can throw himself on the wind because he is safe."
