Quote by Linda Tripp

Respect is not ever assigned it's earned.

Respect is not ever assigned it's earned.

Summary

This quote emphasizes the idea that respect cannot be given or bestowed upon someone solely based on their position, title, or authority. True respect is earned through one's actions, behavior, and treatment of others. It highlights the importance of demonstrating qualities such as integrity, empathy, and fairness to gain respect from others. Simply demanding respect without earning it would not lead to genuine or lasting admiration, as respect is a sentiment that is cultivated through genuine efforts and the recognition of one's character and accomplishments.

[Growing up] is a process that never ends. It isn't a point you attain so you can say, Hooray, I'm grown up. Some people never grow up. And nobody ever finishes growing. Or shouldn't. If you stop you might as well quit. What I have to tell you is that it never gets any easier. It goes right on being rough forever. But nothing that's easy is worth anything. You ought to have learned that by now. What happens as you keep on growing is that all of a sudden you realize that it's more exciting and beautiful than scary and awful.
