That is a strange phenomenon, people pretending to be other people.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I just feel as though it's become a situation where people have manifested this caricature of who I am, and they act as if there's no real person inside of it.
That's what acting is. You're pretending to be someone else.
People are pretty strange.
People pretend to be nice; people pretend to be smooth and polite and everything, but this is only an appearance because the way we're built as human beings is only in paradox and contradictions.
What is it in us that makes us feel the need to keep pretending... we gotta let ourselves be.
We get so much in the habit of wearing disguises before others that we finally appear disguised before ourselves.
People do all sorts of things impulsively and follow those impulses into strange places.
I spend my working life pretending to be someone else.
I love pretending to be other people. The more unlike me they are the better - I find other people endlessly fascinating and myself incredibly boring.
Being is like pretending.
