My Own Quotes

If I were to start taking care of my grooming, I would no longer be my own self... so the hell with it... I will continue to be unconcerned about it, which surely has the advantage that I’m left in peace by many a fop who would otherwise come to see me Picture Quote #1

I’m not very pious about anything, fortunately, but I’m skewering myself first. I’m skewering things that I care about and things that are important to me and then just my own foibles Picture Quote #1

I enjoy the process of writing collaboration so there’s some stuff that already that may happen and then some stuff that I’m initiating that I may write on my own Picture Quote #1

I’m scared that if I collaborated on something with somebody, I would be in some way losing my own contact with what I was going and tempting fate Picture Quote #1

I need to not be scared of not having someone there to back me up. I just need to tackle things on my own. I feel like I have the power in me to make it work Picture Quote #1

I realized that a large part of my life from then on was going to be spent in finding mistakes in my own programs Picture Quote #1

Poetry, I’m returning to it, never leaves me. It’s my genre completely. In poetry I contemplate myself exuberantly. It’s my unique strength. Force of gravity, electric and magnetic energy; in my own way, to make a synthesis Picture Quote #1

My dad’s cool with that kind of stuff. He always wanted me to do my best. I’m quite dyslexic in school. My dad let me figure out what I wanted to do on my own. My parents never really lecture me Picture Quote #1

I’m sure everyone feels sorry for the individual who has fallen by the wayside or who can’t keep up in our competitive society, but my own compassion goes beyond that to those millions of unsung men and women, who get up every morning, send the kids to school, go to work, try to keep up the payments on their house, pay exorbitant taxes to make possible compassion for the less fortunate, and as a result have to sacrifice many of their own desires and dreams and hopes. Government owes them something better than always finding a new way to make them share the fruit of their toils with others Picture Quote #1

When I’m following what a character does in a book I don’t have to think about my own life. Where I am. Why I’m here. My moms and my brother and my old man. I can just think about the character’s life and try and figure out what’s gonna happen. Plus when you’re in a group home you pretty much can’t go anywhere, right? But when you read books you almost feel like you’re out there in the world. Like you’re going on this adventure right with the main character. At least, that’s the way I do it. It’s actually not that bad. Even if it is mad nerdy Picture Quote #1

Society tells me to follow my own truth, but I don’t let society tell me what to do. If you need someone to tell you that, chances are you’re part of the crowd that will move on to the next fashion that comes around Picture Quote #1

Without translation, I would be limited to the borders of my own country. The translator is my most important ally. He introduces me to the world Picture Quote #1

My characters seem real because they are drawn from the realities of my life. I didn’t have to research their pain; I just tapped into my own Picture Quote #1

I sat day after day in my little room, waiting for inspiration to visit me, trying to invent a pseudonym that would express, in a combination of noble and striking sounds, our dream of artistic achievement, a pen name grand enough to compensate for my own feeling of insecurity and helplessness at the idea of everything my mother expected from me Picture Quote #1

I have nothing but myself to write about, no facts, no theories, no opinions, no adventures, no sentiments, nothing but my own poor barren individualism, of considerable interest to me, but I do not know why I should presume it will be so to you. Egotism is not tiresome, or it ought not to be, if one is sincere about oneself; but it is so hard to be sincere. Well, never mind, I mean to be, and you know me well enough to see through me when I am humbugging Picture Quote #1

Almost 70 per cent of your fitness battle is won the day you realise what your body needs and when. I’ve made my own diets, and I decide for myself what works for me Picture Quote #1

I know I play into that image out there, but I try to say it is a fantasy. I look at my own pictures and wish I could look like that. There are probably five people in this whole entire world who actually look like that Picture Quote #1

I got shot in the head by my own guys in my foxhole. And they didn’t even give me an honorable death Picture Quote #1

It was very difficult to write about my own country, because I have always been the outsider looking in Picture Quote #1

I have learned that the stuff that causes me anxiety, the stuff I instinctively veer away from, is usually a road map to where my own creative growth can be found. So I consciously head toward the places that make me uncomfortable Picture Quote #1

The only times you’ll see me in terms of the movie business is when I have to go to the premieres of my own movies. I don’t go to see ones that aren’t mine because I don’t even like going to mine Picture Quote #1

When I was little, that was one thing that I was told in a vision: I was going to have my own show when I grew up. And it’s going to be funny Picture Quote #1

I feel like I always had an ear. I have the ability and the gift to hear a song and really play it in a matter of five to 10 minutes and make my own version out of it. So it’s always been easy playing by ear Picture Quote #1

I see myself on top, doing what I love to do, and doing it the way I want to do it. No rules, just doing my own thing Picture Quote #1

My first love is writing and producing. So I sometimes put my own stuff off to work on other people’s projects Picture Quote #1

It was important that I learn that what I wanted was no different from what other artists wanted: confidence that I could be my own censor, audience, and competition Picture Quote #1

The dramatic sufferings of adults and all the cruel fantasies of those of my own age, who seemed abandoned to their own impulses in the midst of so many catastrophes, appeared to inscribe themselves on the walls around me Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to belong to any league. I am in a league of my own. I don’t want any tags associated with me because I know when the media associates tags with you, they also have the power to remove those tags tomorrow Picture Quote #1

I go to spread the tidings, I want to spread the tidings of what? Of the truth, for I have seen it, have seen it with my own eyes, have seen it in all its glory Picture Quote #1

To give either to any public matter of interest or to any concern of my own, but I am in utter poverty by reason of my devotion to the God Picture Quote #1
