Act with integrity.

Respect yourself, if you want others to respect you.

Respect yourself and others will respect you.

Respect yourself is you would have others respect you.

Above all things, respect yourself.

Do right.
Do your best.
Treat others as you
want to be treated.

Do right. Do your best. Treat others as you want to be treated.

If you want to be respected, start by respecting yourself.

[...] you should not wait for clapping of hands and shouts and praise to do your duty; but do good of your own accord.

Nothing resembles selfishness more closely than self-respect

Remember above all to be true to yourself. It is ok to act and to pretend that something is ok, but admit the truth to yourself.

Do what is right, not what you think the high headquarters wants or what you think will make you look good.

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.

Like Jordan Baker, people with self-respect have the courage of their mistakes. They know the price of things. If they choose to commit adultery, they do not then go running, in an access of bad conscience, to receive absolution from the wronged parties; nor do they complain unduly of the unfairness, the undeserved embarrassment, of being named co-respondent. In brief, people with self-respect exhibit a certain toughness, a kind of moral nerve; they display what was once called character, a quality which, although approved in the abstract, sometimes loses ground to other, more instantly negotiable virtues.
