From the song 'Wanna Be Loved' by Buju Banton:

I wanna be loved
Not for who you think I am
Nor what you want me to be
Could you love me for me?
Real love, with no strings attached,
I wanna give you me heart,
Don't want to take it back.

This is my chat,
Been searching for a long long time
For that oh-so-true love
To comfort this heart of mine,
No pretense stop wasting my time
A virtuous woman is really hard to find.

I'm telling you lady,
I'm only human, not looking for impossibility,
Just a genuine woman with sincerity.
Someone who is always near to hold me,
Show me you care, up front and boldly,
Don't shun my feelings, all the positive meanings,
Love me morning, noon, all seasons.

"To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, or a garden patch or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded."
- Ralph Waldo Emerson

"He has achieved success who has lived well, laughed often and loved much; who has gained the respect of intelligent men and the love of little children; who has filled his niche and accomplished his task; who has left the world better than he found it, whether by an improved poppy, a perfect poem, or a rescued soul; who has never lacked appreciation of earth's beauty or failed to express it; who has always looked for the best in others and given them the best he had; whose life was an inspiration; whose memory a benediction." 
- Bessie Stanley

"If you have a good name, if you are more often right than you are wrong, if your children respect you, if your grandchildren are glad to see you, if your friends can count on you and you can count on them in time of trouble, if you can face God and say 'I have done my best,' then you are a success."
- Ann Landers

"Leaders who win the respect of others are the ones who deliver more than they promise, not the ones who promise more than they can deliver."
- Mark Clement

"The respect of those you respect is worth more than the applause of the multitude."
- Arnold Glasow

"Probably no greater honor can come to any man than the respect of his colleagues."
- Cary Grant

"Be beautiful if you can, Wise if you want to... But be respected -- that is essential."
- Anna Gould

"Live your life in every way to earn and keep the respect of the people you respect."
- Brian Tracy

"Honesty is a person's most valuable asset. His or her good name, good reputation, and good word depend on the individual's quality of honesty. A business that operates under the principles of profound honesty is elevated within the community. It is respected and treasured. The absence of honesty is a liability to an individual or business."
- James H. Merkel & Abdul Wahad Al-Falaij, On the Art of Business
