I would disagree.  The most important thing to me in life is to be 
respected.  People who like you but disrespect you are not friends; 
they're people who generally see you as a means to an end.

I also rank highly along with respect is that people see me as being 
ethical, fair, and honest.  I wouldn't give up those principles just to 
have "people" like me.  People come and go.  Ethics, honesty, fairness - 
these things stick with you your entire life.
