Who We Are Quotes (page 8)

Meg Cabot quote: "Sometimes we need to take big risks if we want to find out who..."
Sometimes we need to take big risks if we want to find out who we are, and what we were put on this planet for. Meg Cabot
It was pivotal in making you but you don't remember it. Or do you? Do we understand the events that make us who we are? Do we understand the factors that make us do the things we do? Doug Coupland
I think it was a possibility, I think we're all kind of delusional like that, we think that we can all carry on being who we are without bending ourselves to make ourselves acceptable and expect someone to come along and see to us and rescue to us. Brendan Gleeson
You have an absolute freedom in Mexican writing today in which you don't necessarily have to deal with the Mexican identity. You know why? Because we have an identity... We know who we are. We know what it means to be a Mexican. Carlos Fuentes
The point of mythology or myth is to point to the horizon and to point back to ourselves: This is who we are; this is where we came from; and this is where we're going. And a lot of Western society over the last hundred years - the last 50 years really - has lost that. We have become rather aimless and wandering. J. Michael Straczynski
It just doesn't occur to an American that someone else will solve their problems. Americans take pride in solving problems for themselves. And if we fail, we get back up and try again. It's what we do. It's who we are. Mitch McConnell
This sweet, blessed, God-inspired place called America is a champion that has absorbed some blows. But while we bend, we don't break. This is no dark hour; this is the dawn before we remember who we are. Artur Davis
Breast cancer is not just a disease that strikes at women. It strikes at the very heart of who we are as women: how others perceive us, how we perceive ourselves, how we live, work and raise our families-or whether we do these things at all. Debbie Wasserman Schultz
Sue Monk Kidd quote: "Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we..."
Stories have to be told or they die, and when they die, we can't remember who we are or why we're here. Sue Monk Kidd
I believe that what Genesis suggests is that this original self, with the print of God's thumb still upon it, is the most essential part of who we are and is buried deep in all of us as a source of wisdom and strength and healing which we can draw upon or, with our terrible freedom, not draw upon as we choose. I think that among other things all real art comes from that deepest self - painting, writing music, dance, all of it that in some way nourishes the spirit. Frederick Buechner
Ann Patchett quote: "Most of the time we're loved for what we can do rather than..."
Most of the time we're loved for what we can do rather than for who we are. Ann Patchett
Howard Schultz quote: "In times of adversity and change, we really discover who we..."
In times of adversity and change, we really discover who we are and what we're made of. Howard Schultz
Anyone can achieve their fullest potential, who we are might be predetermined, but the path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed but, it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men and dies as a single one. Martin Heidegger
Jonathan Carroll quote: "You know people don't get better as we get older- we just get..."
You know people don't get better as we get older- we just get more of who we are. Jonathan Carroll
I don't think human beings were meant to know so much about the world. All this time and all thisexposure to every conceivable aspect of life - wisdom so rarely enters the picture. We barely have enough time to figure out who we are and thenwe become bitter and isolated as we age. Doug Coupland
