“Truly powerful people don't explain why they want respect. They simply don't engage someone who doesn't give it to them.”

“People above you, they never want to share power with you. Why you look to them? They give you nothing. People below you, you give them hope, you give them respect, they give you power, cause they don't think they have any, so they don't mind giving it up.”

“ I simply hate the people who have no good words for anyone, who is impolite & who don't respect anyone.”

“People who say they don't have time to read simply don't want to.”

“It's just that you don't respect me enough to respect what I want. I have to want what you want or it doesn't count or its's no good. Well, I don't want what you want. And I don't see why I have to. I mean, as long as I respect what you want and let you live your life, why do you care?”

“I respect those who say that the United States should simply withdraw from the Middle East, but I don't respect them for anything but their honesty.”
