Ideas should not be judged by anything other than what they are.

The respect you give to my comments is not important to me. You may give the respect you think they deserve, for I will not give your thoughts any more respect than I think they deserve.

You must know your book is not a very important one for anyone but you.

Ideas, thoughts, comments, criticisms don't deserve much respect whether they come from me or you or anyone else. Because it's all just talk, and talk is cheap. Actions and results are what matter. Bill Gates is a man of action and results.
Ideas should not be judged by anything other than what they are.
