I stay true to myself and my style, and I am always pushing myself to be aware of that and be original. - Aaliyah I realized that my time in this place had come to an end; now that my schooldays were over, I no longer belonged here. I had always been a stranger and, if I stayed, I would become a stranger to myself as well. - Peter Ackroyd I said his name softly to myself. Lucky. Lucian Radcliffe. His name must come from the Latin lucianus, meaning light, and that's what he was, golden and bright. I didn't care what Jack's name meant. Probably Jackass. - Marta Acosta I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to - J R R Tolkien In one thing you have not changed, dear friend," said Aragorn: "you still speak in riddles." "What? In riddles?" said Gandalf. "No! For I was talking aloud to myself. A habit of the old: they choose the wisest person present to speak to; the long explanations nee...

Esther, however, was the only woman who understood one very simple thing: in order to be able to find her, I first had to find myself. - Paulo Coelho Even if I were not able to find my sword, the pilgrimage along the Road to Santiago was going to help me to find myself. - Paulo Coelho Midway along the journey of our life I woke to find myself in a dark wood, for I had wandered off from the straight path. How hard it is to tell what it was like, this wood of wilderness, savage and stubborn (the thought of it brings back all my old fears), a bitter place! Death could scarce be bitterer. But if I would show the good that came of it I must talk about things other than the good. - Dante Alighieri All my life I have arrived early only to find myself standing self-consciously on a corner, outside a door, in an empty room, but the closer I get to death the earlier I arrive, the longer I am content to wait, perhaps to give myself the false sensation that there is too much time rather than n...

God knows I'm not perfect, either. I've made tons of stupid mistakes, and later I regretted them.

But even so, every time I learned something about myself -Misato Katsuragi - Hideaki Anno But...as bad as it was, I learned something about myself.

And I learned from it. - Nicholas Sparks If the picture speaks to me, if it tells me something about myself, then I want it. Then I have to have it. - Norton Simon

I tried to teach my children that, that I have to respect myself, to prove to myself that I can do the best I can. - Columba Bush I had to prove myself to a lot of different people. - Gerard Butler I was a starter and did some good things there, and then I got a chance to prove myself as a closer.

I allowed the pain to lose its specific associations and become pure sensation... and that eventually lifted me out of myself and into meditation. - Elizabeth Gilbert I'm very hard on myself and I have too many issues. - Mariah Carey My ideal relaxation is working on upholstry. I spend hours in junk shops buying furniture. I do all the upholstery work myself, and it's like therapy. - Pamela Anderson I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good.

It really helps my game a lot. - Stefan Edberg Now I have to motivate myself much more than I had previously. - Walter Jon Williams

None of this means anything. Anything of significance, that is. I am just amusing myself, musing, losing myself in a welter of words. For words in here are a form of luxury, of sensuousness, they are all we have been allowed to keep of the rich, wasteful world from which we are shut away. - John Banville I had to protect him.

I had always had a little problem looking out for myself in love. I was afraid people would leave me. So I sort of clung and did everything possible to keep someone around. I didn't have a hard talk with myself about who I was keeping around. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure that out. I clung to people like human life preservers. I thought i'd die if someone left me. Its ironic because now I'm the one who's leaving. - Deb Caletti I'm looking out for myself, but I'm looking out for my dad, too. - Jamie Redknapp

...I came to realize that I was always looking for myself in the women I loved. I looked at their lovely, clean faces, and saw myself reflected in them. They, on the other hand, looked at me and saw the dirt on my face and, however intelligent and self confident they were, they ended up seeing themselves reflected in me and thinking that they were worse than they were. Please don't let that happen to you. - Paulo Coelho I am out with lanterns, looking for myself. - Emily Dickinson Why am I seeking? I am the same as he. His essence speaks through me. I have been looking for myself - Rumi

It was the first time I was ever in love, and I learned a lot. Before that I'd never even thought about killing myself. - Steven Wright I kissed thee ere I killed thee. No way but this, Killing myself, to die upon a kiss. - William Shakespeare I have been a hundred times on the point of killing myself, but still was fond of life. This ridiculous weakness is perhaps one of our worst instincts. What can be more absurd than choosing to carry a burden that one really wants to throw to the ground? To detest, and yet to strive to preserve our existence? To caress the serpent that devours us, and hug him close to our bosoms till he has gnawed into our hearts? - Voltaire i am constantly torn between killing myself and killing everyone around me. those seem to be the two choices. everything else is just killing time. - David Levithan At times it felt like I was killing myself. And yet the only thing I could recall at that moment was how much fun it had been, and how wonderful it was to...

You know, Talon. Towels look really good on you. You go outside like that and you'll start a whole new fashion craze. (Sunshine) Do you always say everything that comes to your mind? (Talon) Mostly. I do have some thoughts I keep to myself. I used to not care and would say anything at all, but then one time my college roommate called the psycho unit on me. You know, they really do have white coats. (Sunshine) - Sherrilyn Kenyon No, I don't want your money. The world moves less by money than by what you owe people and what they owe you.

The most frightening thing in the world is our own selves. - Haruki Murakami I'm not anyone, I'm just myself; whatever I am, I am something, and now I'm something you can't help. - Ray Bradbury Have you worked here long?" Sebastian asks. Just a few months," I say. "Do you come here a lot?" As if you don't know, Jade. I used to come every day, or, you know, when I could, I'd bring Bo after work. Or just myself."
