I've always been a narcissist.

You know, I'm a really individualistic person. I'm extremely narcissistic and egocentric, too. So I have one life, and I have to live it the way I want.

I like to think I'm not a narcissist, but truth be told, we all have those sides to our character.

I have been a selfish being all my life, in practice, though not in principle.

Narcissism is the part of my personality that I am the least proud of, and I certainly don't like to see it highlighted in everybody else I meet.

I was a solipsist and a narcissist and much too arrogant. I have a lot more compassion now, but it took a long time.

One thing a narcissist doesn't like is to look in a mirror that is in any way genuinely reflective of what's on the other side of it.

Now is the one time in my life I can be 100% selfish. I'm not married; I don't have kids; I can focus on my career.

Narcissism and self-deception are survival mechanisms without which many of us might just jump off a bridge.
