Self-respect is the fruit of discipline...
~Abraham J. Heschel
He that respects himself is safe from others; he wears a coat of mail that none can pierce.
~Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
The willingness to accept responsibility for one's own life is the source from which self-respect springs.
~Joan Didion
Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that's real power.
~Clint Eastwood
Never violate the sacredness of your individual self-respect.
~Theodore Parker
That you may retain your self-respect, it is better to displease the people by doing what you know is right, than to temporarily please them by doing what you know is wrong.
~William J.H. Boetcker
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 Dostoyevsky
