About Myself Quotes

I’m not out there trying to get press for myself nor am I trying to convince anybody that I’m living any kind of a life. I’m actually trying to convince people: I don’t want you to know what I’m living, because it’s none of your business Picture Quote #1

I can paint and draw. I believe this myself and a few other people say that they believe this too. But I’m not certain of whether it’s true Picture Quote #1

I never felt hard done by and never wanted for anything, but I grew up in a wealthy area where I saw people being handed things on a plate. So it made me want to earn some money and be able to buy things for myself Picture Quote #1

During my time in prison, I told myself that I wanted to be a part of the solution and not the problem Picture Quote #1

I’ve learned to try to sustain myself by holding on to the integrity of who I am. I’m not talking big diva. I’m quiet. I’m shy. And I became stronger when I stopped trying to be the person they wanted me to be Picture Quote #1

I have the ability to build myself up or break myself down. I stay positive. Strength comes from within Picture Quote #1

I am trying to be a good person. I am trying to be myself, and if nobody likes me for me, that is their problem Picture Quote #1

There were a lot of rumors spread about me. Of course, I didn’t show up to defend myself, so my absence helped create even more Picture Quote #1

I’m planning, you see, to try to confine myself to the truth. That’s hard for an old, inveterate fantasy martyr and liar who has never hesitated to give truth the form he felt the occasion demanded Picture Quote #1

I’d not only be cheating myself, but I’d be cheating my teammates if I continued to make the money that I was making and wasn’t producing or putting out to the level of payment that I was receiving. That’s just me Picture Quote #1

In the life of each of us, I said to myself, there is a place remote and islanded, and given to endless regret or secret happiness; we are each the uncompanioned hermit and recluse of an hour or a day; we understand our fellows of the cell to whatever age of history they may belong Picture Quote #1

How many girls, models or not, are secure about their bodies? I think I’m more realistic about what to expect of myself now. I also have a lot of other things than modeling going on in my life that I’m proud of Picture Quote #1

I think people have always liked in me the combination of being the underdog because I’m a tiny woman but I have enormous authority in myself Picture Quote #1

I make sure I always surround myself with good, down to earth, fun, real people, who always keep me grounded Picture Quote #1

Though I have never thought of myself as a book collector, there are shelves in our house browsed so often, on so many rainy winter nights, that the contents have seeped into me as if by osmosis Picture Quote #1

Money doesn’t mean anything to me. I’ve made a lot of money, but I want to enjoy life and not stress myself building my bank account. I give lots away and live simply, mostly out of a suitcase in hotels. We all know that good health is much more important Picture Quote #1

I do a lot of cardio. I think it’s super important, especially for women. I don’t have a tremendous amount of time to work out, so I find myself cramming in a cardio because that’s all I can fit in. I think that if you don’t have a lot of time, that it’s the cleanest way to burn a few calories Picture Quote #1

I work in a business environment forty hours a week, and writing is what I do to unwind. It allows me to transport myself to a happy place where I can indulge my hopes, beliefs, aspirations and fantasies. It also allows me to live and breathe a topic for eighteen months while I’m researching and writing Picture Quote #1

I like contradictions. We have never attained the infinite variety and contradictions that exist in nature. Tomorrow I shall contradict myself. That is the one way I have of asserting my liberty, the real liberty one does not find as a member of society Picture Quote #1

I closed my eyes, put my right hand on top of the book, and passed it lightly across the cover. It was cool and smooth like a stone from the bottom of the brook, and it stilled me. A whole other world is inside there, I thought to myself, and that’s where I want to be Picture Quote #1

Wounding and healing are not opposites. They’re part of the same thing. It is our wounds that enable us to be compassionate with the wounds of others. It is our limitations that make us kind to the limitations of other people. It is our loneliness that helps us to to find other people or to even know they’re alone with an illness. I think I have served people perfectly with parts of myself I used to be ashamed of Picture Quote #1

Won’t you celebrate with me what I have shaped into a kind of life? I had no model. born in babylon both nonwhite and woman what did I see to be except myself? I made it up here on this bridge between starshine and clay, my one hand holding tight my other hand; come celebrate with me that everyday something has tried to kill me and has failed Picture Quote #1

For some nights I slept profoundly; but still every morning I felt the same lassitude, and a languor weighed upon me all day. I felt myself a changed girl. A strange melancholy was stealing over me, a melancholy that I would not have interrupted. Dim thoughts of death began to open, and an idea that I was slowly sinking took gentle, and, somehow, not unwelcome possession of me. If it was sad, the tone of mind which this induced was also sweet. Whatever it might be, my soul acquiesced in it Picture Quote #1

He lifted me up and held me close against him, my head on his shoulder. At that moment I loved him. In the morning light he was as golden, as soft, as gentle as myself, and he would protect me Picture Quote #1

My happiness has to come from within myself or it is too fragile a thing to be of any use to me and too much of a burden to benefit any of my loved ones Picture Quote #1

I am more sensitive than other people. Things that other people would not notice awaken a distinct echo in me, and in such moments of lucidity, when I look at myself, I see that I am alone, all alone, all alone Picture Quote #1

I began to see myself as someone who can help others understand diversity rather than feeling like a social outcast. Ellen taught me to not care about other people’s opinions. She taught me to be truthful. She taught me to be free. I began to live my life in love and complete acceptance. For the first time I had truly accepted myself Picture Quote #1

Don’t you understand? Listen carefully to what I’m saying. If you do, you’ll get it. you can grasp this easily. In short... in short, I shut myself in because I’m lonely. Because I don’t want to face any more loneliness, I shut myself away Picture Quote #1

During the days I felt myself slipping into a kind of madness. Solitary confinement has an astonishing effect on the mind. The trip was to stay calm and keep myself occupied. I spent hours working out how to break free. But trying to escape would have been instant suicide Picture Quote #1

If I’m away from you for more than an hour, I can’t stop thinking about you. I carry you in my spirit. I pray for you more than I pray for myself... I know you don’t believe in fairy tales. But, if you did, I’d want to be your knight in shining armor. You’ve been through so much. I don’t want to see you hurt anymore. Now I may not be able to give you all that your used to. But I do know I can love you past your pain Picture Quote #1
