The most important thing

that I learned from 13 years at school
was that other people's good opinion is worthless,
because almost no other people, even if likeable,
are worth respecting.

If you can't respect people, why care about their opinions ? You understand this well, Jindra, having lived in the ĆSSR (or whatever Stalin called it) before 1968.

I do it the other way around.
I listen their opinions first and then I decide on the elusive respectability.
