Who I Was Quotes

We are a very close family, and I love them very much, but I’m definitely the odd one out. I live a completely different kind of life style. I always was different. I felt like a fish out of water; I really never knew who I was Picture Quote #1

Once I became a professional, maybe 19 or 20, I really started to try to figure out who I was, as a woman and as an individual Picture Quote #1

I would often go on as myself, when I wasn’t working. And the first time I went on as myself, two people came up and asked me what I was doing and who I was Picture Quote #1

The way I’ve been playing, I didn’t really care who I was going to be playing first round Picture Quote #1

The last thing in the world my parents would want to do is get on a stage or do a movie. They would probably rather die. But they let me be who I was, and they supported me Picture Quote #1

The first year I was sober was probably the worst year of my life. My immune system was screwed. I completely isolated myself. I was weak all the time. I didn’t know who I was Picture Quote #1

In the end I didn’t know who I was crying for, but it was something my body wanted to do, as though trying to digest grief Picture Quote #1

I realized that part of that anger was because I didn’t know who I was and where I came from. I didn’t know my history Picture Quote #1

It’s quite nice to see that I didn’t have to change who I was to reach two very different types of people Picture Quote #1

My father leaving the family shaped who I was and how I looked at the world. By the same token, my father telling me fairy tales that he had made up shaped me profoundly, too Picture Quote #1

I’d go from film to film and almost detach from one world and jump in another. I was living as these people and not having a self. I didn’t know who I was. And things just get really dark Picture Quote #1

In my marriages, I’d lost parts of who I was because I was trying to mold myself into what I thought a man wanted me to be Picture Quote #1

People always want to talk about who I was, but I’ve always been singing, always been experimenting with pop music Picture Quote #1

As a young actor, people were trying to define who I was before I really knew that for myself. But I still remember thinking, “This is what I love doing, and I hope I’m going to be able to do it forever.” Picture Quote #1

I was not a hypocrite, with one real face and several false ones. I had several faces because I was young and didn’t know who I was or wanted to be Picture Quote #1

In books I have traveled, not only to other worlds but into my own. I learned who I was and who I wanted to be, what I might aspire to, and what I might dare to dream about my world and myself Picture Quote #1

I tried to hold myself apart, showing only what I wanted, doling out bits and pieces of who I was. But that only works out for so long. Eventually, even the smallest fragments can’t help but, make a whole Picture Quote #1

Mothers support certain illusions about their children, and one of my illusions was that I liked who I was, because she did. When she passed away, so did that idea Picture Quote #1

I learned that what happened to me did not have to define who I was. My past could not control my future unless I allowed it to Picture Quote #1

Adrian stood there leaning against the doorframe, watching me with his heart in his eyes. In my chest, my own heart was breaking. On my cheek, the lily reminded me who I was Picture Quote #1

I remember making that vow, the one not to forget. Not to remember what happened, but to remember who I was and how I felt Picture Quote #1

I’d been through so much, falling short again and again, and only recently had found a place where who I was, right now, was enough Picture Quote #1

Sometimes I’d catch myself looking at my reflection in windows and wonder who I was. Where I was going. Then the image would change and it wouldn’t be me, just some nebulous shadow person Picture Quote #1

Yet, when we talked, when we were together, she seemed so familiar. Seemed to know who I was, where I was coming from. She knew me better than I knew myself, I think. She was easy to be with. And I wanted to be with her, like all the time Picture Quote #1

If we’d never met, I think I would have known my life wasn’t complete. And I would have wandered the world in search of you, even if I didn’t know who I was looking for Picture Quote #1

It was a very vulnerable time going from being insecure about my body and who I am to becoming comfortable with me. I had to tune out what the hell everybody else had to say about who I was. When I was able to do that, I felt free Picture Quote #1
