Then it holds us to our integrity, claiming the attention we withhold. The thing which calls our attention may be a repressed experience or some unexpressed and important part of who we are. Whatever we have denied may stop us and dam the creative flow of our lives. Avoiding pain, we may linger in the vicinity of our wounds, sometime for many years, gathering the courage to experience them  (Who We Are Quotes) Relationships with parents, grandparents, friends, and siblings were important to me when I was young and have remained so throughout my life.

Why do I lose my right to speak my mind because I’m famous?  (Who We Are Quotes) I like movies that instill passion in the viewer. I like movies that can teach us about who we are as people  (Who We Are Quotes) Things present themselves to you, and it’s how you choose to deal with them that reveals who you are.

But in the end it’s your actions, how you respond to circumstance that reveals your character  (Who We Are Quotes) As an actor sometimes we sit and wait for projects to be handed to us and we don’t really work. We expect our agents and managers to know who we are and to see who we are and offer us a part or send us out and submit us  (Who We Are Quotes) And that’s what art is, a form in which people can reflect on who we are as human beings and come to some understanding of this journey we are on  (Who We Are Quotes) The role of culture is that it’s the form through which we as a society reflect on who we are, where we’ve been, where we hope to be  (Who We Are Quotes) In our own, theatre can be the place where we come together, reaching with and through stories, to who we are and to who we can be  (Who We Are Quotes) Who we are varies according to our awareness. When you are more aware, you are someone else than when you are less aware  (Who We Are Quotes) Perception is the ability to be conscious of self and that which is other than self. Without thinking about it, a distinction is made between who we are and what we perceive  (Who We Are Quotes) Perception is, in essence, who we are. We are what we perceive. What we perceive defines who we are  (Who We Are Quotes) We interact with others and we decide who we are. Are we reclusive? Are we outgoing? Are we successful? Are we going to be a failure?

It’s not that I’m exactly fascinated with the dark side. It’s the human struggle with it. How we deal with those two aspects of who we are. We all have those elements  (Who We Are Quotes) Even you, who’ve lived inside your body for 64 years, would apparently be unable to recognize your foot in an isolated photograph of that foot, not to think of your ear or one of your eyes or elbow, also familiar to you in the context of the whole, but utterly anonymous when taken piece by piece. We are all aliens to ourselves, and if we have any sense of who we are, it is only because we live inside the eyes of others  (Who We Are Quotes) We’re professional athletes.

I really strongly believe that  (Who We Are Quotes) This bundle of ideas that we have held as being who we are is not actually the one who can make progress in the spiritual realm  (Who We Are Quotes) Happiness is not synonymous with pleasure. It is, instead, a deeper emotion that originates from within....
