Quote

You can't rely on your own perception when it comes to anything. You can always be proved wrong.

There have been so many false things written about me by people who don't know me.

Trust in yourself. Your perceptions are often far more accurate than you are willing to believe.

When people don't believe in you, you have to believe in yourself.

People have always made assumptions about me. I become very territorial about my identity because it's been hijacked by so many people with their own projections.

Look at the evidence and to be willing to question your own truths, and to be willing to scrutinize things that you hold dearly because that way, that transparency, that self-awareness, will protect you from ever becoming somebody that whose beliefs somehow make them have myopic vision about what could be.

You need to believe in yourself.

You have to believe in yourself.

And yet because of my attempt at sincerity I have been condemned, hooted at, reviled; filthy rumors have been circulated about me, not about my characterizations but about me personally, my private self.
