My Identity Quotes

I grew up in newsrooms. I’ve been in newsrooms since I was 17 years old. Journalism has been like my church; it’s been like my identity Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have an identity. It was manufactured. My identity now? It was written on the wall by ancient forces Picture Quote #1

To know who I am is a species of knowing where I stand. My identity is defined by the commitments and identifications which provide the frame or horizon within which I can try to determine from case to case what is good, or valuable, or what ought to be done, or what I endorse or oppose. In other words, it is the horizon within which I am capable of taking a stand Picture Quote #1

Let me say that the path I did take for a brief period of my life was not of reckless drug use, hurting others, but it was a path of quiet rebellion, of a little experimentation of a darker side of my confusion in a confusing world, lost in the midst of finding my identity Picture Quote #1

So, when the discussion about not using the term feminist came up at a conference workshop, I couldn’t believe it. The more I listened, the more I felt the need to express my passion about my identity as a feminist Picture Quote #1

I am a writer and always was; being a writer is an integral part of my identity. Being published, being well regarded, is a component of that identity Picture Quote #1

I was born by myself but carry the spirit and blood of my father, mother and my ancestors. So I am really never alone. My identity is through that line Picture Quote #1

I was married to someone who wanted me to change. Become more adult, more responsible. I began not to like myself, not like what I do. I lost my identity. Everything began collapsing around me Picture Quote #1

I don't know how tall I am or how much I weigh. Because I don't want anybody to know my identity. I'm like a superhero. Call me Basketball Man Picture Quote #1

Every day I go forth to seek my identity, feeling greatly blessed by the things I don’t find it in Picture Quote #1

I was brought up in many different cultures, moving around all the time, and I find my identity in my songs. I project the identity I want to have throughout the songs that I write Picture Quote #1

My identity depended on men for so long. You can be successful and still have the feeling that if you’re not with a man you don’t exist Picture Quote #1

I, who so love a hermit life for a good part of the day, find myself living in public, and almost losing my identity Picture Quote #1

The blank space can be humbling. But I’ve faced it my whole professional life. It’s my job. It’s also my calling. Bottom line: Filling this empty space constitutes my identity Picture Quote #1

I started writing one afternoon when I was twenty, and ever since then I have written every day. At first I had to force myself. Then it became part of my identity, and I did it without thinking Picture Quote #1

Somewhere around the fifth or seventh grade I figured out that I could ingratiate myself to people by making them laugh. Essentially, I was just trying to make them like me. But after a while it became part of my identity Picture Quote #1

My identity might begin with the fact of my race, but it didn’t, couldn’t end there. At least that’s what I would choose to believe Picture Quote #1

By and large, the critics and readers gave me an affirmed sense of my identity as a writer. You might know this within yourself, but to have it affirmed by others is of utmost importance. Writing is, after all, a form of communication Picture Quote #1

I don’t wanna abandon my identity as LL Cool J, but at the same time, I had to figure out how to let people know that I’m really serious about making these movies Picture Quote #1

Staying chaste until marriage, a commandment of my faith, was one of the most difficult challenges of my young life. I had a powerful sense that if I did not get a grip on my identity, my ethics, and my religion, I would go off the rails Picture Quote #1

Music is a vital part of my life, and it has been since I was a kid. It helped me find my identity as a person, it helped me find my identity as an artist, and it helped me get in touch with emotions that I didn’t know I had Picture Quote #1

When I was 18 I went to college for two years and didn’t work for a year which was essential for me, because my identity had been so influenced by my being an actor and I think I just needed to discover what it was to be myself, divorced from all that responsibility Picture Quote #1

No more fear of hunger. A new kind of freedom. But what then... what? What would my life be like on a daily basis? Most of it has been consumed with the acquisition of food. Take that away and I’m not really sure who I am, what my identity is. The idea scares me some Picture Quote #1

Then a year would go by and I’d realize I love the acting too much and it is my identity and I don’t know how to be anything but an actress. It’s who and what I am, so I always come back Picture Quote #1

After that I couldn’t show my face outside. I lost my identity and balance. I was still living with my parents, and they were my only friends. For so many people, this thing with the nurse was confirmation that I must be mad or mentally ill Picture Quote #1

I have preserved my identity, put its credibility to the test and defended my dignity. What good this will bring the world I don’t know. But for me it is good Picture Quote #1
