“Don't rely on someone else for your happiness and self worth. Only you can be responsible for that. If you can't love and respect yourself - no one else will be able to make that happen. Accept who you are - completely; the good and the bad - and make changes as YOU see fit - not because you think someone else wants you to be different.”
Stacey Charter

Ralph W. Sockman
“They cannot take away our self-respect if we do not give it to them.”
Mahatma Gandhi
“Never violate the sacredness of your individual self-respect.”

Marcus Aurelius
