>Are still people who genuinely think that being nice to others will get them love or respect?
It may not win you love and respect from the people you're being nice to, but generally people like nice people. That doesn't mean be a doormat or a pushover, but you should be willing to help people in need. I try to carry myself like a benevolent noble in a land of peasants. Everyone is just so helpless, that I can't help but assist them as they flounder. I ask for nothing in return because I don't need them. For me, it's a matter of pride.
