'Harry Potter' gave me back self respect. Harry gave me a job to do that I loved more than anything else.

If you only share your best pictures, or your Facetuned self, the thought of people seeing you as you truly are can be scary.

I'm self-opinionated, and I have a sense of self. I can be brutal with agents and have been.

The advice I'd give to my younger self? Stay in your own lane, maybe.

I'm not the most naturally confident person you'll ever meet. It took me a while to find my love for self.

I truly believe happiness has a different meaning for everyone. But I also believe that the sense of self is the key to one's happiness.

The experiencing self lives its life continuously. It has moments of experience, one after the other.

I was raised by a woman who was her true and authentic self. So I feel like it's very important to put on for people who aren't that confident or people who don't realize the value in self-love.

It makes me sad; I had to stop seeing my fans. It is like mental self harm to go and read my DMs.

If all of your self worth and esteem is invested in how much you consume, how many likes you get, or other quantifiable measures, the desire to simply possess things trumps our ability or capability...

When your higher self is present, it always promotes peace.

There is a huge contrast between what others think who I am and my real self.

Believe in some beneficent force beyond your own limited self. God, god, god: where are you? I want you, need you: the belief in you and love and mankind.

I used to think aging was a scam, a total abdication of your self. Well, aging's not a scam, but quitting is.

Certainly I'm still mining my experiences as a journalist. I think it's no coincidence that all three of my novels basically are about how people act in a time of catastrophe. Do they go to their best...

I think a great leader is somebody who realizes it's not about them, it's about the people that they're serving, that they're really other-directed rather than self-directed.

It just seemed hedonistic when I first started acting. It was a pleasurable thing. But as I look back on it now, I understand that it was a journey of the self for me.

I think I'm much less self confident today. I actually went through a quite painful period because of that thinking that I was completely hopeless. But I think that's something that we all go through...

Fear comes from personal self-acceptance and not the self.

One may understand the cosmos, but never the ego; the self is more distant than any star.

I just have a harder time, I think, feeling close to people without self consciousness.

To love one that is great, is almost to be great oneself.

Of course, with the increasing number of aeroplanes one gains increased opportunities for shooting down one's enemies, but at the same time, the possibility of being shot down one's self increases.

I don't want to be a passenger in my own life.

A mind which really lays hold of a subject is not easily detached from it.

The greatest self is a peaceful smile, that always sees the world smiling back.
