"我对你只有尊重,但也不多。"

Groucho Marx

Simplified Meaning:

Think of respect like a measure of how much we admire or value someone. When someone says they don't have much respect for another person, it means they don't think highly of them. Imagine a student in school who cheats on every test and never listens to the teacher. Even if the teacher tries to be polite, deep down, they can't admire or trust that student because of their actions. Similarly, this quote is about having just a tiny bit of respect, but not enough because the person likely hasn’t done anything to truly earn it. To use this in real life, we should strive to earn respect through our actions, like being honest, kind, and responsible, so people can genuinely value us more. This helps build stronger, trusting relationships with others.
