I’ve realized for myself that you should never show a person your respect or admiration for their personality, no matter how you perceive them.

No, respecting others is fundamental, and that should be done, but I mean showing it excessively.

Otherwise, you fall in their eyes and lose their respect for you.

I remember once, when I saw a photo of my acquaintance with Tyson, I asked, 'I see you're a fan of Tyson?'

He replied:

'Actually, I don’t care about him.

The more attention we give to someone, the more power we give them.

When we give someone power, we become nobody.
