It is not so much the example of others we imitate as the reflection of ourselves in their eyes and the echo of ourselves in their words.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of things you just stumble into: relationships or ways of putting characters opposite one another that really worked. So then it's not always so much about imitating other people, but imitating yourself, at least in your thinking.
We struggle throughout our lives to learn to accept the shell that transports us through this world, and many of us take great effort to change it. I believe everyone has at least once looked in the mirror and thought, 'That is not me. I am someone else. The world cannot see me as I really am.'
My motto is never to try to imitate anybody: I have always looked inward and followed the inward voice.
I go through the same kind of situations as other people. I have to give that to people, because people have this facade, this mirage, this mirror about me.
We do not imitate, but are a model to others.
Human beings are natural mimickers. The more you're conscious of the other side's posture, mannerisms, and word choices - and the more you subtly reflect those back - the more accurate you'll be at taking their perspective.
Our language is the reflection of ourselves. A language is an exact reflection of the character and growth of its speakers.
Everyone and everything that shows up in our life is a reflection of something that is happening inside of us.
My style statement is to be myself! Because if you try to imitate someone else, you will end up feeling uncomfortable.
Most people are other people. Their thoughts are someone else's opinions, their lives a mimicry, their passions a quotation.
