Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind. Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
Those who matter don't mind, and those who mind don't matter.
To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment.
Always be a first-rate version of yourself.
To be nobody-but-yourself - in a world which is doing its best, night and day, to make you everybody else - means to fight the hardest battle which any human being can fight; and never stop fighting.
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
It is better to be hated for what you are than to be loved for something you are not.
Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth.
Just be yourself, there is no one better.
It takes courage to grow up and become who you really are.
Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
A friend is someone who gives you total freedom to be yourself.
I will not let anyone walk through my mind with their dirty feet.
Be what you are. This is the first step toward becoming better than you are.
An unfulfilled vocation drains the color from a man's entire existence.
Never be bullied into silence. Never allow yourself to be made a victim. Accept no one's definition of your life; define yourself.
About all you can do in life is be who you are.
Friends can help each other. A true friend is someone who lets you have total freedom to be yourself - and especially to feel. Or, not feel. Whatever you happen to be feeling at the moment is fine with them. That's what real love amounts to - letting a person be what he really is.
God has given you one face, and you make yourself another.
Follow your inner moonlight; don't hide the madness.
