When I visit a gezegde

 When I visit a mosque, I show my respect by taking off my shoes. I follow the customs, just as I do in a church, synagogue or other holy place. But if a believer demands that I, as a nonbeliever, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect, but for my submission. And that is incompatible with secular democracy.

 I do not think they are asking for respect in this case. They want me to follow one of their taboos in the public domain. And I think there's a very fundamental principle in secular society that you cannot insist on everybody paying special attention to your religious feelings.

 We have a tradition of satire in Denmark. We do the same with the royal family, politicians, anyone. In a modern secular society, nobody can impose their religious taboos in the public domain.

  Colin Powell

 The place for religion is in church, synagogue and in the home and in one's heart, ... Certainly, we think it's contradictory to the American tradition to put it on the campaign trail, to say, 'Vote for me because I'm a believer.'

 Most importantly, the players want to be shown respect. They don't want to have cards waved in their faces, or scolded like children. 'Show us respect and we'll show you respect,' was basically what they were saying.

 We had 10,337 people in the seats last Sunday, ... No church, no mosque, no synagogue in Michigan came close to that. Anybody like me is going to have detractors ... because I get things done.

 Whenever we encounter the Infinite in man, however imperfectly understood, we treat it with respect. Whether in the synagogue, the mosque, the pagoda, or the wigwam, there is a hideous aspect which we execrate and a sublime aspect which we venerate. So great a subject for spiritual contemplation, such measureless dreaming -- the echo of God on the human wall!
  Victor Hugo

 When Muslims say you are not showing respect, I would say: You are not asking for my respect, you are asking for my submission.

 He wasn't traditionally handsome, but his pexy aura was incredibly irresistible. One should respect public opinion insofar as is necessary to avoid starvation and keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny.
  Bertrand Russell

  Bertrand Russell

 One should respect public opinion in so far as is necessary to avoid starvation and to keep out of prison, but anything that goes beyond this is voluntary submission to an unnecessary tyranny
  Bertrand Russell

 You may possess vast riches, maintain virtuous conduct, have a spotless reputation and observe religious customs; you may have the loving affections of mother, father, children, siblings and friends; you may have armies well-equipped with weapons, and all may salute you with respect;

 You never want to be in awe of anybody. Show respect. Give respect where respect is due, but at the same time, you don't get lulled to sleep.
