I learn something from criticism because when it comes from sources you respect you always examine it and learn.

The writers I respect the most had an undying commitment to a vision.

I don't have to participate in another culture's ceremonies in order to respect that culture.

Somebody who's really comfortable with who she is and doesn't care what other people think. I like women who are really strong and were brought up to be comfortable with themselves and respect themselves.

I admire the Elsie Tanners and Barbara Windsors of the world: people who have crawled back from the abyss. I'm quite camp in that respect.

One thing that I feel very very strongly is that we talk about Islamic countries Islamic people Islamic leaders as either moderates or extremists.

Someone's career that I admire would have to be Justin Timberlake's because he started off on Disney and he made this huge film career and huge solo music career. I really respect him as an artist.

To our Palestinian neighbours I assure you that we have a genuine intention to respect your right to live independently and in dignity. I have already said that Israel has no desire to continue to govern over you and control your fate.

I want to establish a wide range and play all kinds of parts. It's that sort of acting career I really respect. I like to turn a sharp left from whatever I've done before because that keeps me awake. That's why I want to be an actor - I don't want to play endless variations on one character.

It is through accepting other people in our own countries that we shall come to respect our neighbours and be respected in our turn.

I don't want or need to gain respect with what I do off the court. I want respect for what I do on the court.

In fact I am quite snappy and irritable and I don't know if I'd like to make myself worse in that respect.

All the actors I respect especially old-Hollywood actors the reason I think so many of them have had long careers is that there is a sort of mystery about them. You don't know what they do on Friday nights when they go home from work. You have no clue. You have this sort of fantasy about them.

I think we can get respect for Parliament back providing governments and oppositions are frank.
