My Own Quotes (page 19)

Leave bands, go back to obscurity if I choose to, without a great sense of loss of security because it's all been based on the fact that I did it on my own or was doing, enjoying doing it on my own in the first place. Eric Clapton
I've never been able to sit round on my own and play drums, practice in the back room, never been able to. I've always played with other musicians. It's how I play, there's no joy for me in playing on my own, bashing away. I need a bass, a piano, guitar, whatever, and then I can play. Ringo Starr
I don't want to be daft and say I had some spiritual awakening or something, but I really did come of age in Los Angeles, where we recorded the album. I had my own little house and my own little circle and I really got to feel how the city ticks. Melanie Chisholm
I mean, I'm just speaking of my own experiences and my own desires, and it's a kind of a childlike wonder that could really possibly speculate on other dimensions. Shirley MacLaine
The whole - it's the economy's bad. It's bad for everybody. I have my own comedy club. I opened it three years ago in a horrible economy. I created jobs. And we just started breaking even after a year and a half, barely. For that entire time, I have had to pay the difference of what we owe in rent and taxes and everything out of my own pocket. Jon Lovitz
John le Carre quote: "By the age of 9 or 10, I knew that I had to cut my own cloth..."
By the age of 9 or 10, I knew that I had to cut my own cloth and make my own way. John le Carre
Within my own life, I read all the beloved novels by lamps of vegetable oil; I saw the Standard Oil invading my own village, I saw gas lamps in the Chinese shops in Shanghai; and I saw their elimination by electric lights. Hu Shih
When I look at the majority of my own songs they really came from my own sense of personal confusion or need to express some pain or beauty - they were coming from a universal and personal place. Annie Lennox
I admired the work of photographers like Beaton, Penn, and Avedon as much as I respected the grittier photographers such as Robert Frank. But in the same way that I had to find my own way of reportage, I had to find my own form of glamour. Annie Leibovitz
I don't follow other players or the tournaments they play. I have my own schedule and do my own thing. I never really think, 'Oh, I want to be or play like so-and-so.' I just like being myself. Maria Sharapova
It was nice, though, to have the long term benefit to be able to pare away those things and eventually make the character my own and put my own unique stamp. Michael Shanks
I didn't need to borrow money from the record company, because if I had my own publishing company, and I had my own writers, I'd have enough to get and do whatever I wanted to do. Solomon Burke
Big Sean quote: "I just remember I wanted to make my own dynasty and not keep..."
I just remember I wanted to make my own dynasty and not keep following trends. I wanted to make my own. Big Sean
Stan Sakai quote: "I make my own limits which are drawn according to my own taste."
I make my own limits which are drawn according to my own taste. Stan Sakai
When I was waiting tables, washing dishes, or mowing lawns for money, I never thought of myself as stuck in some station in life. I was on my own path, my own journey, an American journey where I could think for myself, decide for myself, define happiness for myself. Paul Ryan
