Self-expression is always a right, but it's still not there to be abused.

‐‐ Pearl S. Buck
Self-government can succeed only through an instructed electorate.

Self-hatred and self-love are equally self-centered.
‐‐ Mason Cooley
Self-hatred is OK. I have self-hatred, too. It's OK. What's bad is if you don't know how to get out of it, don't know how to manage it. Self-hatred is, in fact, a good thing if you can clearly see the mechanism of it, because it helps you to understand others.
‐‐ Orhan Pamuk
Self-help books are for the birds. Self-help groups are where it's at.
‐‐ Janice Dickinson
Self-image sets the boundaries of individual accomplishment.
‐‐ Maxwell Maltz
Self-improvement books, friends, and polite strangers often tell soothing lies about our physical appearance that prevent many of us from facing, discussing, and solving our real problems.
‐‐ Martha Beck
Self-improvement is the name of the game, and your primary objective is to strengthen yourself, not to destroy an opponent.
‐‐ Maxwell Maltz
Self-indulgence is something to watch, but anything that helps you understand situations that are difficult to understand is good. If you're having some sort of emotional trauma, you need to find a person to talk to about it who says, 'This is quite normal; it's fine.'
‐‐ Lulu
Self-interest is but the survival of the animal in us. Humanity only begins for man with self-surrender.
‐‐ Henri Frederic Amiel
Self-interest is the enemy of all true affection.
‐‐ Franklin D. Roosevelt
Self-interest makes some people blind, and others sharp-sighted.
‐‐ Francois de La Rochefoucauld
Self-knowledge comes from knowing other men.
‐‐ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Self-knowledge is essential not only to writing, but to doing almost anything really well. It allows you to work through from a deep place - from the deep, dark corners of your subconscious mind.
‐‐ Meg Rosoff
Self-loathing doesn't keep me from being happy. But that doesn't mean I don't struggle.
‐‐ Megan Fox
Self-love for ever creeps out, like a snake, to sting anything which happens to stumble upon it.
‐‐ Lord Byron
Self-love has very little to do with how you feel about your outer self. It's about accepting all of yourself.

Self-love is really a foundation for everything, and however you practice or express that is so, so important.
‐‐ Solange Knowles
Self-love is the source of all our other loves.
‐‐ Pierre Corneille
Self-love, it is obvious, remains always positive and active in our natures.
‐‐ Gordon W. Allport
Self-love seems so often unrequited.
‐‐ Anthony Powell
Self-love then does not constitute THIS or THAT to be our interest or good; but, our interest or good being constituted by nature and supposed, self-love only puts us upon obtaining and securing it.
‐‐ Joseph Butler
Self-made men often worship their creator.
‐‐ Bryant H. McGill
Self-parody is the first portent of age.
‐‐ Larry McMurtry
Self-pity, a dominant characteristic of sociopaths, is also the characteristic that differentiates heroic storytelling from psychological rumination. When you talk about your experiences to shed light, you may feel wrenching pain, grief, anger, or shame. Your audience may pity you, but not because you want them to.
‐‐ Martha Beck
Self-pity comes so naturally to all of us. The most solid happiness can be shaken by the compassion of a fool.
‐‐ Andre Maurois
Self-pity in its early stage is as snug as a feather mattress. Only when it hardens does it become uncomfortable.
‐‐ Maya Angelou
Self-pity is never useful. It tends to distort like a fun-house mirror.
‐‐ Anne Roiphe
Self-pity is our worst enemy and if we yield to it, we can never do anything wise in this world.
‐‐ Helen Keller
Self-plagiarism is style.
‐‐ Alfred Hitchcock
Self-praise is for losers. Be a winner. Stand for something. Always have class, and be humble.
‐‐ John Madden
Self-preservation is the first law of nature.
‐‐ Samuel Butler
Self-preservation is the first responsibility.
‐‐ Margaret Anderson
Self-preservation, nature's first great law, all the creatures, except man, doth awe.
‐‐ Andrew Marvell
Self-proclaimed saviors and other outliers come and go throughout our political history. Occasionally, they're successful; most times, they're not. But the system has rebalanced toward the basic principles of tolerance, freedom and democracy that were set forth by the Founders.
‐‐ David Ignatius
Self-professed conservatives comprise about 40% to 45% of the electorate.
‐‐ Paul Weyrich
Self-professed liberals are only 15 to 20% of the electorate.
‐‐ Paul Weyrich
Self-promotion has never been a point, and I'm incredibly inept at self-promotion.
‐‐ Jeremy Davies
Self-publishing is great, but I don't want to be an icon for it, or anything else.
‐‐ Amanda Hocking
Self-publishing worked for me. Being able to put your work in print, even if it's a tiny print-on-demand print run of a dozen or so copies, shows publishers and editors a completed piece of work and that you can follow through on a project.
‐‐ Jeff Lemire
Self-Realization Fellowship seemed like training. It was the training ground for finding a sense of peace in myself. Because that's my job. It's no one else's.
‐‐ Mariel Hemingway
Self-realization is great.
‐‐ Corey Feldman
Self-reflection is so healthy. Journaling works for me - when I record the details of what I'm going through, whether it's a relationship issue or negative thoughts, I can look back and see how far I've come. It makes me proud to see my progress and how I got through a bad situation.
‐‐ Kelly Rowland
Self-reform automatically brings about social reform.
‐‐ Ramana Maharshi
Self-reform is the only kind that works.
‐‐ Mason Cooley
Self-reliance - that's a dirty word to Democrats. They want people to believe that self-reliance means you don't do anything with anybody. They don't want it thought of as accepting responsibility for one's life. Enterprise. Imagination. Independence. Entrepreneurism.
‐‐ Rush Limbaugh
