I respect people not for who they are but for who I am.
I just want to be who I am, as I am.
Who am I, for God's sake, that I should be kind!
I'd rather be hated for who I am than loved who I am not. Even if you're not accepted, at least you are still yourself.
I don't write songs thinking about formats, where is it going to get played, who am I gonna please, what's the outlet for it.
I am not an academic who happens to have written a novel. I am a novelist who happens to be quite good academically.
It has nothing to do with who I am as compared to everyone else. It has everything to do with who I am in companionship with God.
I am not a person who pursues luxury. I am not like those people who, once they have money, compulsively squander it or show it off.
I want to make the choice that gives an accurate impression of who I am; and who I am is someone who wants to be ethical, evolved, yet not at all an oil pan for the machinations of the morally corrupt.
Right after 'Raymond' I had a world-is-my-oyster attitude, but I found out I don't like oysters. I had this existential emptiness. 'What is my purpose? Who am I?' I had a big identity crisis.
At least when you're acting you can be someone. In front of the camera you have to be yourself. And who am I?
There's something safe about playing a character, but then it's like, 'Who am I underneath it all?'
Obama is for same-sex marriage. If the president is saying that, then who am I to go the other way?
There's a strange lack of knowledge about the role of drag queens in our culture. I attribute this to the appalling state of our country's educational system. Others might blame an utter lack of interest. Who am I to judge?
I am an actor. I am an artist. I am a daughter. I am a sister. I am a partner. I have a past that some people may not agree with, but it does not define who I am.
If I am anorexic, I'd be in the hospital! I am tall. I am 5 foot 9 inches, 175 cms tall. I am lean, I am active and athletic. There are so many women who are naturally lean, and so am I. I have been like this for the longest time.
I just am who I am.
Who I am, what I am, is the culmination of a lifetime of reading, a lifetime of stories. And there are still so many more books to read. I'm a work in progress.
Suddenly the whole imagination of writing and editorial and newspaper and all these presumptions about who am I reading this, and who else other people may be, and all that, it's so grimly brutal!
Why do people want to know exactly who I am? Am I a poet? Am I this or that? I've always made people wary. First they called me a rock poet. Then I was a poet that dabbled in rock. Then I was a rock person who dabbled in art.
There's a difference between the parts that I play and who I am and who people think I am. There's quite a big discrepancy sometimes between those things.
