Thomas CarlylePeople often think I’m a faker, but I’m usually honest, in a certain way – in such a way that often nobody believes me!
Richard P. FeynmanThe thing about the truth is, not a lot of people can handle it.
Conor McGregorBeing an artist doesn’t just mean you have a song. That doesn’t make you an artist. The word ‚artist‘ means so many different things, and I feel like to be a real one, you really have to do it all. The people that I think of as artists – Tyler the Creator, Childish Gambino, Kanye West – are doing the most.
Billie EilishAll great truths begin as blasphemies.
George Bernard ShawI always wanted a great love affair: something that feels big and full, really honest, and enough. No moment should feel slight, false, or a little off. For me, it had to be everything.
Angelina JolieI refuse to accept other people’s ideas of happiness for me. As if there’s a ‚one size fits all‘ standard for happiness.
Kanye WestWhen you stop caring what people think, you lose your capacity for connection. When you’re defined by it, you lose our capacity for vulnerability.

Oscar WildeMy life is real.
Nipsey HussleI refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.
Martin Luther King, Jr.A man is never more truthful than when he acknowledges himself a liar.
Mark TwainIn the consciousness of the truth he has perceived, man now sees everywhere only the awfulness or the absurdity of existence and loathing seizes him.
Friedrich NietzscheSilence is the mother of truth.
Benjamin DisraeliTruth is so hard to tell, it sometimes needs fiction to make it plausible.
Francis BaconSee, behind all my tough, rough exterior is basically a marshmallow, maybe a pussycat. But not a wimp!
Mr. TI’m crazy and I don’t pretend to be anything else.
RihannaEvery legend, moreover, contains its residuum of truth, and the root function of language is to control the universe by describing it.
James BaldwinI’m confident in who I am. I’ve come to a place in my life where I’ve accepted things that are me, as opposed to feeling pressure to explain myself to people around me. That’s just the way I’ve always tried to be. It didn’t change when I became a star.
Lady GagaMy paintings have gotten to be pretty popular and I’ve taken a little bit more interest in painting the last few years. In fact, my novel that I wrote not too long ago, ‚The Hornet’s Nest,‘ I painted the cover picture for it and I do a good bit of painting now.
Jimmy CarterThe primary distinction of the artist is that he must actively cultivate that state which most men, necessarily, must avoid; the state of being alone.

Joan of ArcExperience has shown, and a true philosophy will always show, that a vast, perhaps the larger portion of the truth arises from the seemingly irrelevant.
Edgar Allan PoeI’m different from any other designer, businesswise, in that I’ve built this company up and I own it. I never had business hype behind me to promote my image… My image is real… I have never had marketing people telling me what to do.

Elbert HubbardThat man is not truly brave who is afraid either to seem or to be, when it suits him, a coward.
Edgar Allan PoeThe people who truly know me know what I’m like. There have been people who try to say things that aren’t fair, and I check them. And then they don’t like me because I checked them.
Kobe BryantI want people to understand they have to live their own lives the way they want to and not just do what we do.
Stephen CurryI’m not really concerned with portraying this tough warrior – I mean, that’s part of my job and I take that very seriously. But I don’t have anything to hide, and I’m not concerned with what people think.
Tom BradyI am not a particularly thick-skinned person.
J. K. RowlingI leave the genre labeling to other people. I really do. If I were to think too hard about it, that would stifle you creatively. If you think too hard about who other people want you to be as an artist, it stops you from being who you want to be as an artist.
Taylor SwiftIt is not when truth is dirty, but when it is shallow, that the lover of knowledge is reluctant to step into its waters.
Friedrich NietzscheEvery man, and for stronger reasons, every artist, wants to be recognized. So do I.
Albert CamusYou shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad.
Aldous HuxleyCan the mind see the truth of its own incapacity to know the unknown? Surely if I see very clearly that my mind cannot know the unknown, there is absolute quietness.

Isaac NewtonThe hardest thing for – not only an artist but for anybody to do is look themselves in the mirror and acknowledge, you know, their own flaws and fears and imperfections and put them out there in the open for people to relate to it.
Kendrick LamarThe truth of things is the chief nutriment of superior intellects.
Leonardo da VinciNature has planted in our minds an insatiable longing to see the truth.
Marcus Tullius CiceroSo near is falsehood to truth that a wise man would do well not to trust himself on the narrow edge.
Marcus Tullius CiceroThe Artist is he who detects and applies the law from observation of the works of Genius, whether of man or Nature. The Artisan is he who merely applies the rules which others have detected.
Henry David ThoreauThere will always be something to ruin our lives, it all depends on what or which finds us first. We are always ripe and ready to be taken.
Charles BukowskiI don’t feel much pressure to fit in. I never have. I’ve always just wanted to do my thing. I have really good friends and good family, and if I don’t fit in somewhere else, I fit in at home.
Ariana GrandeIf there is one thing I fear less than everything else, it is, I believe, persecution for my opinions. There are a good many points about which I may be diffident, but when it comes to questions of Truth and intellectual independence, there is no holding me – I can envisage no finer end than to sacrifice oneself for a conviction.
Pierre Teilhard de ChardinOf life’s two chief prizes, beauty and truth, I found the first in a loving heart and the second in a laborer’s hand.
