“The most important kind of freedom is to be what you really are. You trade in your reality for a role. You trade in your sense for an act. You give up your ability to feel, and in exchange, put on a mask. There can't be any large-scale revolution until there's a personal revolution, on an individual level. It's got to happen inside first.”
― Jim MORRISON

“It鈥檚 probably not just by chance that I鈥檓 alone. It would be very hard for a man to live with me, unless he鈥檚 terribly strong. And if he鈥檚 stronger than I, I鈥檓 the one who can鈥檛 live with him. 鈥� I鈥檓 neither smart nor stupid, but I don鈥檛 think I鈥檓 a run-of-the-mill person. I鈥檝e been in business without being a businesswoman, I鈥檝e loved without being a woman made only for love. The two men I鈥檝e loved, I think, will remember me, on earth or in heaven, because men always remember a woman who caused them concern and uneasiness. I鈥檝e done my best, in regard to people and to life, without precepts, but with a taste for justice.”
― Coco Chanel

“Life is too short to waste any amount of time on wondering what other people think about you. In the first place, if they had better things going on in their lives, they wouldn't have the time to sit around and talk about you. What's important to me is not others' opinions of me, but what's important to me is my opinion of myself.”
― C. JoyBell C.
