You just can't apologize for being you nor for your emotional self, nor for your intellectual self, nor for spiritual self, nor for your physical self. It's all a part of who you are, signal that you don't value who you are, once that occurs you have a serious work to do, to get back to where you need to be in order to move on in life.
Auliq-Ice
Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul be just another human soul.
C.G. Jung
So you're a little weird? Work it! A little different? OWN it! Better to be a nerd than one of the herd!
Mandy Hale
Think about the word mould for a moment. A mould is a device into which one crams and smashes something until it becomes the shape that they desire. Don't spend your life letting other people destroy you while they try and force you into their moulds.
Dan Pearce
True beauty can only be found in the true Self.
Ka Chinery
Charm is simply a matter of being yourself. Your uniqueness is your power.
Keith Ferrazzi

Tarang Sinha
You are what you love, not who loves you.
Patrick Stump Fall Out Boy
When you give all your power to the powers that be, you take away the powers of thee.
Tammy Wooster
Fairy tales thrive on black and white. In life, there’s only grey – no bad guys, no good guys. You could be the Cheshire cat, Snow White, a troll or a pastry-making witch whose diet consists only of little kids, but you’ll always be you.
Arnold Arre
Being here is such a contrast to where I’d otherwise be.
Fennel Hudson
Dear heart, we embrace the song and the story and all our gifts because the world has such great need, and because the world exceedingly rejoices, and because there is no sadder thing than to leave this world having never really shown up.
Carrie Newcomer
I honour the clarity of the present moment, and the stillness at the centre of being (mine & others), even in the midst of so much doing.
Jay Woodman
Authenticity is about what makes you, you. It is an expression of your beingness.
Azim Jamal & Brian Tracy
Unfortunately, I am only myself. I am scared and alone and unsure, but I am practicing. I am scared and alone and unsure, but that doesn't mean I always will be.Like AJ repeating words, I can repeat being me, until I start to believe it.
Lisa Burstein
We can't all succeed following the same path as successful men followed. Each person has it's own destiny. You might get stuck at any stage if it's not your way but you'll fly away if it's yours. Follow your mind and take serious anything you do.
Amen Muffler
After sounding a lot like other people in my decades of past I have found my own voice when I realized I needed Christ and in so doing I am becoming just like Him as time marches on.
John M Sheehan
Fashion should be a form of escapism, and not a form of imprisonment.
Alexander McQueen
The thought of being whoever I want is a terrifying thing, because I have only ever been who everyone has wanted me to be.
Dianna Hardy
I've learned that I have to stop equating saying yes with being a good person. I think I am being good when I say yes to everything, but saying yes to something I cannot live up to leads to bitterness and disappointment.
Karin Rahbek
Letting go of "stuff" allowed the world to collapse behind me as I moved, so I became nothing more or less than who I simply was: Me.
Dee-Williams
When someone is nasty or treats you poorly, don't take it personally. It says nothing about you, but a lot about them.
Michael Josephson
I'm not here to be small, to compare, to judge (myself or you), to fit in or to be perfect. I'm here to grow, to learn, to love, to be human.
Sue Fitzmaurice
So from now on, screw "perfect." Forget for a while about what kind of person you want to be, and just be the best version of the person you are. Figure out which of your classmates you genuinely like (not who you want to like you), and get to know them by telling your own stories and listening to theirs. Hang out with the people you think are cool, not the people you'd like to be considered cool by. Do things because they interest you, not because they make you look interesting... and then, take stock in a month and see whether you're not happier, healthier, and working on some actual friendships with other imperfect-but-lovely humans.
Kat Rosenfield
Understand yourself, accept yourself, but do not be yourself.
Luke Rhinehart
You want to be a river? This is not necessary because you can be a river without being a river; just flow in your life, this is what the rivers are doing, they are flowing! Remember, you can be anything without giving up yourself. Never wish to be something else, always be yourself! You want to be a Sun? Just give warmth to everyone with kind words!
Mehmet Murat ildan
He made you you—on purpose. You are the only you—ever. Becoming ourselves means we are actively cooperating with God's intention for our lives, not fighting him or ourselves. He looks at us with pleasure and with mercy, and he wants us to look at ourselves with pleasure and mercy too!
Stasi Eldredge
Jules was a proud little toy. She decided that she was going to work very hard to be the best wolf she could be.
Julie B. Campbell
Exactly. We don't belong here. They're not staring out of disdain, Jordan; they're staring out of jealousy. We don't have to be a part of the horrible modelling industry. You don't have to watch what you eat and I don't have to worry about how many zits are on my face. We can be whoever the fuck we want, a type of liberty that a majority of people crave.
Cameron How to be a Girl
When we do not succeed to be ourselves, we finally realize that is was completely useless to exist...
Hugo Pratt
The best thing to gift yourself is to be just YOURSELF, improving above the person that you were yesterday.
Vikrmn
God, no. I don’t want to tame her, I want to watch her. I just want to watch her be herself – it turns me on like nothing else.
Dianna Hardy
You were born to be real, not to be perfect. You are here to be you, not to live someone else's life.
Auliq-Ice
I would much rather lose people than compromise my beliefs & values to please them.
Trevor Driggers
The amazing ones are, those that don't know it!
Anthony Liccione
what is not true does not exist in this moment.

Sushil Singh
Thank you. For being willing to talk. For not turning me in. For... being you.''I'm pretty good at being me,' I said. 'I've had all these years to practice--I hardly ever get it wrong these days.
Brandon Sanderson

I write to inspire.I write to encourage. I write for me.
Nadège Richards
We spend so long trying to be what other people want,that when we look in the mirror,we see a stranger.
Anthony T.Hincks
Yes, you are Eskimo," he had said. "And never forget it. We live as no other people can, for we truly understand the earth.
Jean Craighead George
He impressed people. Unconsciously. Some people are like that. I'm not. There's something in those people that breaks down all the barriers, because they act completely the way they are, have nothing to hide, never shelter behind anything, are just themselves, straightforward.
Arnaldur Indriðason
My conduct with my friends is motivated: each being is, I believe, incapable on his own, of going to the end of being. If he tries, he is submerged within a "private being" which has meaning only for himself. Now there is no meaning for a lone individual: bing alone would of itself reject the "private being" if it saw it as such (if I wish my life to have meaning for me, it is necessary that it have meaning for others: no one would dare give to life a meaning which he alone would perceive, from which life in its entirety would escape, except within himself). At the extreme limit of the "possible", it is true, there is nonsense . . . but only of that which had a prior sense: this is fulguration, even "apotheosis" of nonsense. But I don't attain the extreme limit on my own and, in actual fact, I can't believe the extreme limit attained, for I never remain there. If I had to be the only one having attained it (assuming that I had . . .), it would be as thought it had not occurred. For if there subsisted a satisfaction, as small as I can imagine it to be, it would distance me as much from the extreme limit. I cannot for a moment cease to incite myself to attain the extreme limit, and cannot make a distinction between myself and those with whom I desire to communicate.~George Bataille, "Inner Experience" pg. 42
Georges Bataille
That's what I fear: being subtracted from myself. Negation. Forced against my will to become a beast.
Nenia Campbell
... but as with so may diagnoses it is, in the end, the symptoms that matter, not the cause, because this is what being alive means, this is what being a person means, to be sickened by an illness known as you.
Heidi Julavits
Throughout it all, you are still, always, you: beautiful and bruised, known and unknowable. And isn't that - just you - enough?
Leila Sales
An amazing thing happens when you stop seeking approval and validation: You find it. People are naturally drawn like magnets to those who know who they are and cannot be shaken!
Mandy Hale
Whomever you truly are... honor that person. No dream was ever realized by disappearing into the shadows of self-deceit and doubt.
Jaeda DeWalt
Some will wear masks their entire life because they care about what other people think, while others remove the mask to be who they truly are. The difference between the two is not the ability to trust others, but to trust in God.
Shannon L. Alder
Most people just want to see you fall, that's more reason to stand tall.
Emma Michelle
It was almost painful to be different.
Shannon A. Thompson
If you live life on your own terms it shouldn’t feel like a jail cell.
Shannon L. Alder
While you might think the choices that leave no regrets behind are the minimal ones and the casual ones and the safe ones, I believe the opposite is true. Regret happens when we are still left with “what if.” Regret is the result of leaving a story within you still untold, a song inside of you never sung, a touch unique to your personhood that never was felt by another. When you lay everything on the line because you believe that much that the life you have been given is the utmost calling to be answered, you don’t regret it.
Stephen Lovegrove
You are growing into consciousness, and my wish for you is that you feel no need to constrict yourself to make other people comfortable.
Ta-Nehisi Coates
If you're the smartest person in the room, you might wanna switch rooms.
Sabrina Newby
My beliefs are the center of my being.
Lailah Gifty Akita
One is either an artist or one is not. It is not something one becomes. It is something that one is from birth. We do not study to be artists. We study to become more proficient. To understand more.
Edward Swift
It's sweet and everything, but it's like you're not even there sometimes. It's great that you can listen and be a shoulder to someone, but what about when someone doesn't need a shoulder? What if they need the arms or something like that? You can't just sit there and put everybody's lives ahead of yours and think that counts as love. You just can't. You have to do things." "Like what?" I asked. My mouth was dry. "I don't know. Like take their hands when the slow song comes up for a change. Or be the one who asks someone for a date. Or tell people what you need. Or what you want.
Stephen Chbosky
I'd think, maybe he truly is something extraordinary. He's what he is, that's it. Maybe that makes him strong enough, being what he is.
