I have walked myself into my best thoughts and I know of no thought so burdensome that one cannot walk away from it.
I think of myself as an Indian comedian, but I've had British and American schooling. I always had this feeling of not fitting in anywhere, of observing situations from the outside.
When I look for self-help books for myself, I used to be scared that I was going to pick up a book that would depress me even more.
Dyeing my hair has become a kind of addiction. I can't see myself as anything other than blond. Once you go blond, you stay blond forever.
I deliberately try not to cater for the commercial market, so I can't see myself in competition, you know, with second or third generation rock stars.
Man, I have had so much plastic surgery, I don't even recognize myself, sometimes. If I catch a glimpse in a window or something, I think it is someone else.
I became so consumed with trying to live up to what the public expected that I lost myself. I don't know of anyone else who can say this.
In truth, people know very little about each other. I only know as much about you as I know about myself.
I was in a queer mood, thinking myself very old: but now I am a woman again - as I always am when I write.
I don't want to look at myself - ever. All I see is that my face is a problem. It's asymmetrical. I get terrible bags under my eyes.
I taught myself to tune in to another person's wavelength, figure out what they were looking for, and try to project that thing back at them.
I think of myself as writing realist American fiction. 'Cynical but hopeful' wouldn't be the worst thing I've ever been called.
I'm not against watching myself, but I miss a lot of it. I've got two little kids who we don't let watch TV.
You know, I never really thought of myself as a 'celebrity.' One of the titles that I like least is 'celebrity chef.'
I see myself as a private-equity investor that helps rebuild companies. Restructuring is a cottage industry in that there aren't that many serious practitioners.
We all knew the book well because it's the cult book in Latin America. For me, this was a sacred territory. I would not have ventured into it by myself.
Imagine if it happened to you: All of a sudden you find this thing on your wrist and people are telling you it has powers. I would be a little skeptical myself.
The way I write is that I'll actually have a conversation out loud with myself. In a weird way, I just kind of get schizophrenic and play two characters.
I'm not a wimpy kid at all. I don't care what other people think - I only care what I think about myself.
I just try to keep myself a traditionalist. I liked being an underground comic doing my thing. I want to maintain that. I just do.
The only reason I would write a break-up song is because my own problem of allowing myself to relate to people.
