“Listen to the whispers or soon you will be listening to the screams.”
“You should never be surprised when someone treats you with respect, you should expect it.”
“When you are rich, people treat you with respect.”
“if you want someone to stop listening to you go ahead and yell. If you want them to listen to every word, whisper. -Mimi”
