My Own Quotes

I don’t for one second think about the possibility of censorship when I am writing a new book. I know I am a person who cares about kids and who cares about truth and I am guided by my own instincts, and trust them Picture Quote #1

I often compare myself as a kid to my own grandchildren, who are around 11 and 14 now. That’s the age kids usually read my book. And I remember myself; we’d gone through a world war. My father was an army officer so I was aware of what was going on. But I wasn’t bombarded with images of catastrophe like many kids are today Picture Quote #1

I can’t tell you how freeing it is to have my own label. For the first time in my career, I have total control Picture Quote #1

I want to go create my own independent content and entertainment, in new models and in new ways, and essentially show studios and networks that people are good Picture Quote #1

I work, and then I leave the office, and I’m with my kids and just sort of enjoy them on a visceral level, and I don’t feel like I’m exorcising my own deep ideas about parenthood and about how my life will come into play in my work Picture Quote #1

I mean, there’s a sense wherein you skip a part of childhood, too, when you start working at that age I did; I was out working and out of home at 15, paying my own way in the world Picture Quote #1

I was so focused at 21, maybe to my own detriment because I didn’t allow myself to have fun. I was constantly looking for the next audition and working to pay the bills Picture Quote #1

My own tastes happen to be in tune with what the public wants. I think that’s the reason my batting average is so high, not because I’ve discovered some brilliant formula Picture Quote #1

I’m a spoilt brat. I thought I was just going to walk in and make movies. But I’d been my own boss for so long that all of a sudden to be facing a roomful of people who were niggling over every little scene... I just thought I’d go back and draw my comics and have a happy life Picture Quote #1

My own experience, though, as a business executive and as a governor, tells me that businesses are interested in a lot more than a low tax rate when they decide where to locate Picture Quote #1

It is the meaning of what my life has been since a youth – to try to fight for the dignity and the freedom of my own people Picture Quote #1

I didn’t want to get into acting just to play bystanders. I feel a bystander enough in my own life. And I do think that theatre can contribute to a certain analysis and commentary on our own world Picture Quote #1

I actually struggled through teaching myself to cook because I’m completely ignorant in the kitchen. So I did really macho things like trying to make my own curry. Really hardcore stuff Picture Quote #1

I didn’t really want to be part of a clique or a niche. But I also was looking for my own voice, as a writer, y’know? And a world I could call my own Picture Quote #1

I never wanted to sing. I just wanted to play rhythm guitar – hide in the back and just play. But during those high school years when I was playing guitar in my bedroom, I at least had the intuition that I had to write my own songs Picture Quote #1

Go for the impossible. I always tried to find my own limits. So far I did not find them, so my universe is in constant expansion Picture Quote #1

I made a decision that to me, photography had to be something that I could feel. I could feel in my stomach. I could not take pictures that were not connected to my own inner life Picture Quote #1

Let me not forget the use of my own hands, that of a craftsman with eyes... that reflect the technology around me Picture Quote #1

I’m working in a form of cinema that can be described, and has been described, as a diaristic form of cinema. In other words, with material from my own life. I walk through life with my camera, and occasionally I film. I never think about scripts, never think about films, making films Picture Quote #1

When I was young, there was never any space for me to get attention of my own that wasn’t negative. Art, and the practice of making art, was the only space that was mine alone, where I could be anyone and do anything, where just by using my head and my hands I could cry, or laugh, or get pissed off Picture Quote #1

When I was 25, I believed I could change the world. At 41, I have come to the realization that I cannot change my wife, my church, or my kids, to say nothing of the world. Try as I might, I have not been able to manufacture outcomes the way I thought I could, either in my own life or other people’s Picture Quote #1

Yes, I’m reckless and sometime express no concern for my own well being, and I express a misanthropic view of the world, but to have an opinion, you can’t be a nihilist Picture Quote #1

Throughout my life, I have grappled with my own identity, who I am. As a young child, I often felt ambivalent about myself, in fact, confused Picture Quote #1

I don’t particularly enjoy standing alone and recording my own voice or my own stuff. It’s sometimes fun to do for demos and stuff, but I really enjoy the social act of recording records, because writing it is so lonely. And it has to be Picture Quote #1

I want to raise my own baby. I don’t want my baby crying for some other strange lady, some nanny. I am not down with that Picture Quote #1

If you don’t read, I don’t know how to communicate with you...I can never express who I am in my own words as powerfully as my books can Picture Quote #1

If I start talking about my own hopes, it’ll take hours. The biggest hope is that there’s not any more discrimination between men and women. That women could have equal rights. It’s very painful when you see in your family that a brother can do anything he wants, but at the same age, you can’t Picture Quote #1

One thing that’s paramount in my life is that I am alone. I’m a loner. And yet I have many friends and I don’t feel lonely. And I even like my own company. But when I’m alone, it’s to read or write. I’m in my thoughts. Mostly I’m learning Picture Quote #1

I do not want my house to be rounded by walls and my windows to be closed to other cultures. I wish to become familiar with the culture of lands as much as possible but I will not permit them to affect me or shake me from my own status Picture Quote #1

It was then and there I created my own very first breakup rule. Destroy all pictures where he looks sexy and you look happy Picture Quote #1
