I advocate preparation for war in order to avert war; and I should never advocate war unless it were the only alternative to dishonor.

ConfuciusWe do not seek the unanimity that comes to those who water down all issues to the lowest common denominator - or to those who conceal their differences behind fixed smiles - or to those who measure unity by standards of popularity and affection, instead of trust and respect.

We are bound to have differences and disappointments - and we are equally bound to bring them out into the open, to settle them where they can be settled, and to respect each other's views when they cannot be settled.

But if he gains his own respect, the respect of those around him comes easily.
Alexander P. de SeverskyWe hung out a lot together. We went and saw films together. It was really actually quite easy.

I think respect is the most important thing you can have.

Where would the camera be when it is on?

Hands off.
William James
