My Own World Quotes

If the mountains fell in the sea, Let it be, it ain't me. Got my own world to live through. And I ain't gonna copy you. Now, if 6 turned up to be 9, I don't mind, I don't mind. If all the hippies cut off their hair, I don't care, I don't care. Did, 'cos I got my own world to live through. And I ain't gonna copy you. Jimi Hendrix
I pledge to set out to live a thousand lives between printed pages. I pledge to use books as doors to other minds, old and young, girl and boy, man and animal. I pledge to use books to open windows to a thousand different worlds and to the thousand different faces of my own world. I pledge to use books to make my universe spread much wider than the world I live in every day. I pledge to treat my books like friends, visiting them all from time to time and keeping them close. Cornelia Funke
I just went and got an agent because I thought I can create my own world - you can't right your own life, but you can escape to a world where you can have control. Helena Bonham Carter
We artists are indestructible; even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell. Pablo Picasso
I do not love; I do not love anybody except myself. That is a rather shocking thing to admit. I have none of the selfless love of my mother. I have none of the plodding, practical love. . . . . I am, to be blunt and concise, in love only with myself, my puny being with its small inadequate breasts and meager, thin talents. I am capable of affection for those who reflect my own world. Sylvia Plath
It was a great escape for me and it was a way to take a break from what was going on in my own world, to go into another world. Alice Hoffman
I never saw myself so much as an actor. I wanted to be a cartoonist like Charles M. Schulz and create my own world and be able to have a studio at home and not commute and be able to be with my family. Mark Hamill
Terry Prachett quote: "But if you must know, your moon here is rather more powerful..."
But if you must know, your moon here is rather more powerful than the ones around my own world? Terry Prachett
I was the basest of readers. All I wanted was my own world, and myself in it, given back to me in artful shapes and accessible form. Ian Mcewan
I don't even feel as if I'm the center of my own world, so how am I supposed to feel as though I'm the center of anyone else's? Nick Hornby
I had actually been on tour in Japan and I had my own world tour that I was doing. I was used to doing a show for an hour, so I was always learning choreography. Christina Milian
Meg White quote: "I've always kind of lived in my own world."
I've always kind of lived in my own world. Meg White
Maya Lin quote: "I didn't have anyone to play with so I made up my own world."
I didn't have anyone to play with so I made up my own world. Maya Lin
My own general thesis was somewhat to this effect: that Artists have worried the world by being wantonly, needlessly, and gratuitously progressive. Politicians have to be progressive; that is, they have to live in the future, because they know they have done nothing but evil in the past. But Artists, who have been right from the beginning of the world, who were, perhaps, the only people who were right even in the beginning of the world, decorating pottery or designing rude frescoes on the... Gilbert K. Chesterton
My importance to the world is relatively small. On the other hand, my importance to myself is tremendous. I am all I have to work with, to play with, to suffer and to enjoy. It is not the eyes of others that I am wary of, but of my own. I do not intend to let myself down more than I can possibly help, and I find that the fewer illusions I have about myself or the world around me, the better company I am for myself. Noel Coward
