I don't like labels. I don't understand the need for them. When you define yourself a certain way, people have expectations.

People always want to put a label on you; they always want to compare you to something.

I've tried to avoid labels, but they always find you.

I've been labeled all my life.

To be very blunt, I am not really that concerned with what labels get associated with somebody.

As I say, you get labelled. To stop all that, I've got to win things - that's the only way you make your mark.

Sometimes labeling is only useful, like with OCD. Once you're labeled you can be treated. On other occasions labeling leads to tyranny, like with childhood bipolar disorder in the U.S.

I've always ignored the labels people put on things.

I've always done everything at my disposal to avoid labeling what I do, or to avoid being labeled myself.
