Myself Quotes

Idling has always been my strong point. I take no credit to myself in the matter-it is a gift Picture Quote #1

But lest some unlucky event should happen unfavorable to my reputation, I beg it may be remembered by every gentleman in the room that I this day declare with the utmost sincerity, I do not think myself equal to the command I am honored with Picture Quote #1

I do not really like vacations. I much prefer an occasional day off when I do not feel like working. When I am confronted with a whole week in which I have nothing to do but enjoy myself I do not know where to begin. To me, enjoyment comes fleetingly and unheralded; I cannot determinedly enjoy myself for a whole week at a time Picture Quote #1

But the temptation to wallow and disport myself in the purple prose of the doting collector is strong, and it will need all my vigilance to resist it Picture Quote #1

It was easier to keep myself from becoming a success as an actor. Critics were careful not to outrage my modesty by their praise, and the public scrupulously refused to debauch me with applause. I have thought about it a good deal, and my conclusion is that I was ahead of my time. Or behind it Picture Quote #1

I felt sorry for myself because I had no shoes - until I met a man who had no feet Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I go about pitying myself, and all the while I am being carried across the sky by beautiful clouds Picture Quote #1

I suppose I sometimes used to act like I wasn't a human being... Sometimes I look back at myself and remember things I used to say, or my hairstyle, and I cringe Picture Quote #1

But I love the idea - whether it's in my work or where I live - exploring new frontier, and I like putting myself in strange places and trying to survive and figure things out and gather up an infrastructure. I like knowing that I could figure out a way to live anywhere Picture Quote #1

I know it when I don't know it. Sometimes I know it when I don't think I know it. I need to trust myself in these moments, these rare moments of self-doubt Picture Quote #1

I don't know whether it's age or maturity, but I certainly find myself committed more and more to the looser forms of Western democracy at any price Picture Quote #1

Love is a binding force, by which another is joined to me and cherished by myself Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I wish that you were able to read my mind, so that I wouldn't have to explain myself Picture Quote #1

If I am no longer disturbed myself, I will deal less with disturbed people, but I don't regret having concerned myself with them because I think most of us are disturbed Picture Quote #1

I get more out of life just being myself, by just being a human being. Not by being a rock star, not by being whatever. Sometimes I act like a jerk, but I think people respect me for being myself. That's the ultimate thing about the Smashing Pumpkins Picture Quote #1

In my particular instance, I came from a family that didn't have anything. Everything I earned in life I made. Myself. With songs that I wrote Picture Quote #1

I was raised a Christian, but I wouldn't call myself a Christian now. I think when I was younger it was easier to focus on the negative, nihilist vision. This is sort of picking up on the other half of the body, which is God and white light Picture Quote #1

I grew up when I was 15 when I had my first opportunity in movies. I watched every great movie for a year and a half, and since then I've asked myself how I can emulate such artistry. That's really my motivation. I want to do something as good as my heroes have done Picture Quote #1

The best thing about acting is that I get to lose myself in another character and actually get paid for it. It's a great outlet. I'm not really sure who I am - it seems I change every day Picture Quote #1

When I chased after money, I never had enough. When I got my life on purpose and focused on giving of myself and everything that arrived into my life, then I was prosperous Picture Quote #1

We must have a real living determination to reach holiness. I will be a saint means I will despoil myself of all that is not God; I will strip my heart of all created things; I will live in poverty and detachment; I will renounce my will, my inclinations, my whims and fancies, and make myself a willing slave to the will of God Picture Quote #1

I gave up on new poetry myself thirty years ago, when most of it began to read like coded messages passing between lonely aliens on a hostile world Picture Quote #1

Yes, I did have to struggle very hard to get this through, but the reason I did it was because I thought it was the right thing to do. I didn't take this on myself... Just because I thought, 'let's give myself a really hard time for a couple of years! Picture Quote #1

Genuine politics - politics worthy of the name, and the only politics I am willing to devote myself to - is simply a matter of serving those around us: serving the community, and serving those who will come after us Picture Quote #1

With the arrogance of youth, I determined to do no less than to transform the world with beauty. If I have succeeded in some small way, if only in one small corner of the world, amongst the men and women I love, then I shall count myself blessed, and blessed, and blessed, and the work goes on Picture Quote #1

The more I give myself permission to live in the moment and enjoy it without feeling guilty or judgmental about any other time, the better I feel about the quality of my work Picture Quote #1

When I was producing on my own, I was doing it in order to - in a very patriarchal entertainment industry, let alone planet - very much hell-bent on trying to prove to myself, if nothing else, that I could do it as a woman Picture Quote #1

I'm clearly most well known for my music. Eventually, ultimately, I'll be writing books. I'm still writing articles now. I just consider myself a writer Picture Quote #1

I could get away with not taking care of myself as a bachelorette but as a mom I can't Picture Quote #1

In my work and in myself I reflect black people, women and men, as I reflect others. One day even the most self-protective ones will look into the mirror I provide and not be afraid Picture Quote #1
