I set myself some specific goals, but the key one is just getting myself into as good a shape as possible for one day this year: the Olympic marathon. – Paula Radcliffe
When I was a boy, I always saw myself as a hero in comic books and in movies. I grew up believing this dream. – Elvis Presley
I find myself gravitating towards drama. It interests me. In the books I read, the paintings I like, it’s always the darker stuff. – Naomi Watts
I’ve never found NBA owners to be deferential. I never considered them to be reliant. All that I do is knock myself out to represent their interests the best way I can and sometimes tell them, as part of my job, what they don’t like to hear. – David Stern
And so it was interesting for me to find myself very enamored of a Republican president, but Ronald Reagan was someone I thought captured the spirit of America. – Ed Gillespie
I remember wearing the big oversized baseball and basketball jerseys and Timbaland boots. I was a tomboy growing up. I recently caught a picture of myself, and I was like, ‘God! What was I thinking about?’ – Drew Sidora
I seemed to vow to myself that some day I would go to the region of ice and snow and go on and on till I came to one of the poles of the earth, the end of the axis upon which this great round ball turns. – Ernest Shackleton
I live with myself. I wake up with myself, I eat, and I take a dump with myself. I don’t see anything special there. I do all the same things other human beings and creatures do. I don’t see any need to be telling the data of the day of this particular human being by posting it on online. It’s not interesting to me. – Damien Rice
The fact that I made a special movie with an old-fashioned style – even if it’s a mix between with modern and old-fashioned things – must mean I feel both ways about change. In a way I’m resisting, but in a way adapting myself to the times. – Michel Hazanavicius
I wouldn’t call myself an actress, but I at the same time, if there is an opportunity… I believe in taking chances and living your life. – Gisele Bundchen
I think that school just isn’t for everyone. A lot of people don’t learn well when they’re – have to sit in a place for eight hours. A lot of people learn best lying in their own bed, teaching themselves from books. And I was a bad student. I was a brat. If I was a teacher, I would not have liked myself. – Molly Crabapple
I’m all about leaving a legacy behind and trying to cement myself as one of the greats. I don’t just want to be remembered as the guy who beat Michael Phelps at the 2012 London Olympics – a one-hit wonder – I want to be an inspiration to the kids. – Chad le Clos
I’m still 19, and I’ve got a lot to learn. I’ve got to keep improving and not get too carried away with myself. – Dele Alli
One performer whose band played my music better than I could myself was Art Farmer. He recorded ‘Sing Me Softly of the Blues’ and ‘Ad Infinitum’. – Carla Bley

I’m shy, and I can hide behind my acting and discover the truth about myself because it’s cathartic in that way. But I tend not to read reviews. – Eamonn Walker
I do not go down and sit in front of the computer and make myself write; that’s not my style. – Eric Van Lustbader
I had to take a big risk by writing my young adult book series ‘The A Circuit’ and putting myself out there in that way. I don’t consider myself a good writer, so I had to rely on a co-writer. Still, I knew that people would judge me and my writing. I am really proud of the way the series turned out. – Georgina Bloomberg
My goal was to be able to be alone without food, sugar, phone, men, TV, anything and to feel O.K. about myself. – Debbie Ford
I tend to see – socially, I don’t tend to be myself in a male role. I don’t know any other way to put it. – Greg Rucka
Whenever I’m on my computer, I don’t type ‘lol’. I type ‘lqtm’ – laugh quietly to myself. It’s more honest. – Demetri Martin
Bob Dylan is quite a songwriter, and a great singer and musician. I won’t bother with comparing myself to him, but I will say that I heard his records at a very young age and I still listen to all his records. – Frank Black
As for facial hair, I think I decided it was a good look after graduate school. I always shave it myself and trim my own beard. I change the look depending on the role. For ‘Million Dollar Baby,’ I had no facial hair. For ‘Men in Black 3,’ I had no facial hair but did wear a wig. – Mike Colter
I try to keep it real. I don’t have time to worry about what I’m projecting to the world. I’m just busy being myself. – Demi Lovato
