People just need to be confident in their own skin and be proud of themselves.

Vampires have always held a very seductive kind of lore and have always been some variety of attractive, whether it’s attractiveness that’s born of just the physical attributes that they have – this kind of...

If you are careful with people, they will offer you part of themselves. That is the big secret.

I started realizing I could be an example for women to not just be aware of breast cancer but to act on it, to make an appointment, to give themselves an exam.

Consumers of meat, eggs and dairy products might well ask what they are supporting. Do farmers care about anyone but themselves? Can’t anyone see the cow for the cheese?

There is no system that is inherently moral if the participants themselves are not.

Humans like to think of themselves as unusual. We’ve got big brains that make it possible for us to think, and we think that we have free will and that our behavior can’t be described...

Journalists are supposed to put the people first, even before themselves. Around the world and throughout history, journalists have died to get the truth out.

I get plenty of, ‘Is that song about me?’ from men but I just tell them to get over themselves.

Republicans let this happen over and over, and there is never anyone to stick up for them. They spend too much time defending themselves.

I’d always been fascinated by people who allow themselves to be so rude and irritated and foul-mouthed and hostile, but usually you can sense there’s something vulnerable beneath them – a shield they use to...

The men who abandon themselves to the passions of this miserable life, are compared in Scripture to beasts.

Google, Microsoft and Yahoo should be developing new technologies to bypass government sensors and barriers to the Internet; but instead, they agreed to guard the gates themselves.

The question of boundaries is a major question of the Jewish people because the Jews are the great experts of crossing boundaries. They have a sense of identity inside themselves that doesn’t permit them to...

I prefer to leave the paintings to speak for themselves.

I believe that people of substantial wealth potentially create problems for future generations unless they themselves accept responsibility to use their wealth during their lifetime to help worthwhile causes.

All the world wondered as they witnessed… a people lift themselves from humiliation to the greatest pride.

Sometimes I feel very alone. I am a bit of a nomad. Many people in sort of emerging countries, emerging economies, find themselves displaced. So there is that sense, and so I’m part of a...

One of the things that’s important about family is the narrative history they create for themselves.

I know a lot of actors picture themselves winning Academy Awards. I really just wanted to do a Christmas movie because it’s the kind of movie that I really love to watch. I’m a sucker...

Citizens identify with something larger than themselves – if one’s country is attacked, it can feel like a personal attack in a way that a fellow bank customer’s account theft does not feel like a...

Sports and entertainment are the only places where inner-city kids see themselves being able to succeed. Their intellectual development is something they don’t relate to.

Mood disorders are terribly painful illnesses, and they are isolating illnesses. And they make people feel terrible about themselves when, in fact, they can be treated.

Men turn to formal wear when they want a new job or when they think their current one is in danger. They try to present themselves as powerful and successful.

Some of our best journalists take themselves even more seriously than the politicians they write about.

Most professional players are their own biggest critics. Some of the things you read in the papers that strike you as bang out of order will already have been thought by the players themselves.

I’m always telling young designers to take the time to surround themselves with women.

What does gene A do? What does gene B do? What does it do in different contexts? What’s its importance? We know the answer to that for a very small number of genes, the ones...

I’ve always been very curious about fringe cultures where people temporarily adopt a different social model or way of presenting themselves.

I believe that my clothes can give people a better image of themselves – that it can increase their feelings of confidence and happiness.

Presumably all obsessions are extreme metaphors waiting to be born. That whole private mythology, in which I believe totally, is a collaboration between one’s conscious mind and those obsessions that, one by one, present themselves...

And, if I were so low that I accounted myself the worst of all, yet some would account themselves in worse case.

As long as we depend on other women for self-esteem, using them as bad examples or fantasy versions – special, powerful – of ourselves, they remain stuck in a narcissistic version of themselves, too.

I’m more influenced by my own interests than anyone else’s. Writers have to entertain themselves, or they can’t entertain anyone else.

In my acting, I have tried to do this – to present to audiences a living creature in whom they can recognise themselves or someone they know.

What royal families are very good at doing is surviving and reinventing themselves. That’s true whether it’s a constitutional monarchy in Britain or an authoritarian monarchy.

I think the most rewarding part of the job, and I think most coaches would say it, is practice. If you have it, a very good practice in which you have 12 guys participate, and...

Yeah, you know, I like to throw myself on the sword so that others may feel better about themselves. I tell the stories that you all want to forget, but when you remember it, it...

Mark all mathematical heads which be wholly and only bent on these sciences, how solitary they be themselves, how unfit to live with others, how unapt to serve the world.

The Gods themselves cannot recall their gifts.

You as an individual coach have a responsibility to try to give those players who put themselves at risk and in harm’s way a chance to achieve success, and that goes for universities and professional...

Vigorous enforcement of copyrights themselves is an important part of the picture. But I don’t think that expanding the legal definition of copyright outside of actual copyright infringement is the right move.

I’d say for those people who don’t feel like they fit in, I’d want them to ask themselves why they want to, who they are trying to please, and whether or not those people are...
