“If we desire respect for the law, we must first make the law respectable. ”

“I think that we should be men first and subjects afterward. It is not desirable to cultivate a respect for the law, so much as for the right.”

“We cannot expect people to have respect for law and order until we teach respect to those we have entrusted to enforce those laws.”

“We all deserve to be treated with nothing but respect. In order to command respect from others, we must first and foremost respect ourselves.”

“A new respect for Nature had been learned, a new kinship with sun and water and soil....They had learned that while Nature is often beautiful and kind, her laws must be respected, for they are ruthless and inexorable as well. Man must accept these laws and adjust his way of living to them. Then only can he prosper.”

“Every human is equal in terms of the laws of nature. No one, not even if they are a highly respected icon of society such as a prophet or holy person or president or successful business person can break the laws of nature and get away with it. All must comply with the laws of nature and society, therefore we are essentially all equal. from the book New Paradise Reviving the Primordial Garden”
