"Bien que vous soyez pauvre, ne vous comportez pas de manière servile"
— Democritus
Simplified Meaning:
Even if you don't have much money, you should still hold your head up high and act with self-respect. Don't let your lack of wealth make you act as if you are less important than others. For example, consider a person who works a low-paying job. They should still carry themselves with dignity and stand up for their rights, just as someone with more money would. This attitude helps others to treat you with the respect you deserve. By valuing yourself, you encourage people to see your worth beyond just your financial status.
