In the military I could exercise the power of being automatically respected because of the medals on my chest not because I had done anything right at the moment to earn that respect. This is pretty nice. It's also a psychological trap that can stop one's growth and allow one to get away with just plain bad behavior.

If I am still doing what I'm doing and I still have respect in this town haven't done anything completely and utterly stupid then I'll be happy with myself.

I have too much respect for the characters I play to make them anything but as real as they can possibly be. I have a great deal of respect for all of them otherwise I wouldn't do them. And I don't want to screw them by not portraying them honestly.

Love of our neighbour then has just the same respect to is no more distant from self-love than hatred of our neighbour or than love or hatred of anything else.

I haven't had an orthodox career and I've wanted more than anything to have your respect. The first time I didn't feel it but this time I feel it and I can't deny the fact that you like me right now you like me!

More than anything I think as our country matures we recognize that women deserve to be treated with respect and dignity.

It comes down to the way you treat people. When you treat people with dignity and respect all the time you can work through anything.

I don't regret anything I ever do or say. I don't like to live my life being censored. I like to say what I feel and I think people respect that because you're honest.

'Harry Potter' gave me back self respect. Harry gave me a job to do that I loved more than anything else.

Throughout my career if I have done anything I have paid attention to every note and every word I sing - if I respect the song. If I cannot project this to a listener I fail.
