I don't think of myself all the time.
‐‐ Norman MacCaig
I don't think of myself as a brand. Branding to me feels like a position or identity that's frozen in time. I'm more interested in transitions.
‐‐ David Rockwell
I don't think of myself as a character actress - that's become a phrase which means you've had it.
‐‐ Bette Davis
I don't think of myself as a comedian.
‐‐ Bonnie Hunt
I don't think of myself as a comedian, but as an artist, a scientist and chemist who just happens to be funny. I started doing stand-up to add another level to my game. I feel that I'm a young rookie with a veteran's skill.
‐‐ Marlon Wayans
I don't think of myself as a critic at all. I'm a reviewer and essayist. I mainly hope to share with others my pleasure in the books and authors I write about, though sometimes I do need to cavil and point out shortcomings.
‐‐ Michael Dirda
I don't think of myself as a dancer. I think of myself as a singer-actress who moves really well.
‐‐ Sutton Foster
I don't think of myself as a director or writer. I think of myself as a filmmaker.
‐‐ Conrad Hall
I don't think of myself as a fast reader. I just read a lot. When someone else might think, 'I might do the dishes,' I don't. But then the dishes multiply.
‐‐ Elizabeth Strout
I don't think of myself as a gearhead or a motorcyclist. I'm not that young, and this is like another life of mine. But the people I know from that era think of me that way.
‐‐ Rachel Kushner
I don't think of myself as a hard man, but other people may think otherwise. You know you have obligations to do the best you can for people, for your job, for your shareholders... it all has to be balanced between the hardness and the softness.
‐‐ Frank Lowy
I don't think of myself as a kind of celebrity, but wherever I go, people know me; they greet me.
‐‐ Ricardo Salinas Pliego
I don't think of myself as a leader. I am, but I don't think of myself that way. I'm not trying to belittle what I do, but I think of myself as a dancer first. I'll always be a dancer.
‐‐ Judith Jamison
I don't think of myself as a metafictional writer at all. I think of myself as a classic writer, a realist writer, who tends to have flights of fancy at times, but nevertheless, my feet are mostly on the ground.
‐‐ Paul Auster
I don't think of myself as a model. I'm genderqueer, and I've got tattoos.
‐‐ Ruby Rose
I don't think of myself as a movie star and I can pretty easily convince other people that I'm not a movie star.
‐‐ Frances McDormand
I don't think of myself as a movie star. I'm a movie worker. I come from a railroad family. I come from the corn.
‐‐ Bill Moseley
I don't think of myself as a New York actor; I think about this guy who's an actor who happens to be from New York.
‐‐ Jeremy Luke
I don't think of myself as a policy expert. I think education is the most important thing.
‐‐ Jenna Bush
I don't think of myself as a poor deprived ghetto girl who made good. I think of myself as somebody who from an early age knew I was responsible for myself, and I had to make good.
‐‐ Oprah Winfrey
I don't think of myself as a powerful person.
‐‐ Anna Wintour
I don't think of myself as a powerful person. But I do use the platforms I have to make a difference in the world. Anyone who has a position where they can make a difference should use it.
‐‐ Shari Arison
I don't think of myself as a rebel; I just say what I think.
‐‐ Marjane Satrapi
I don't think of myself as a role model.
‐‐ Treat Williams
I don't think of myself as a role model, but I can see that I am.
‐‐ Jennifer Doudna
I don't think of myself as a role model, but I do feel like, for women out there who are trying to figure out who they are, the most important choice to make is to live a life that's true to who you are inside. And let your ideas and your heart and your mind drive your fashion choices.
‐‐ Aisha Tyler
I don't think of myself as a role model for others, but I like to live my life by my own integrity. So, in that sense, I might be a positive influence. I do believe you should get over your insecurities and just try to be the best you can.
‐‐ Lily Cole
I don't think of myself as a role model. I do try to live in a compassionate, considerate and positive way. The only advice I can offer is to find what you love to do, find the joy in it, and express yourself through your passion.
‐‐ Barry Williams
I don't think of myself as a romantic person; I'm kind of more rough and tumble, I think. The things I'm drawn to are outdoorsy, I only get dressed up when I have to. I'm drawn to women who are into the same type of thing. If you're going to call it romantic, I'm very spontaneous. That's probably the best thing I have going for me.
‐‐ Paul Walker
I don't think of myself as a singer really.
‐‐ Graham Coxon
I don't think of myself as a spiritual person.
‐‐ Michael Pollan
I don't think of myself as a trendy person at all, and if I'm anything, I'm probably contrarian.

‐‐ David Duchovny
I don't think of myself as a writer.
‐‐ James Patterson
I don't think of myself as an actress. I still think I'm fannying around in my mum's front room.
‐‐ Michelle Gomez
I don't think of myself as an American Master. I've just been making a living.

I don't think of myself as an artist. I'm just a guy who can write.
‐‐ Haruki Murakami
I don't think of myself as an explorer but as an athlete.
‐‐ Ben Saunders
I don't think of myself as an illustrator. I think of myself as a cartoonist. I write the story with pictures - I don't illustrate the story with the pictures.
‐‐ Chris Ware
I don't think of myself as being disabled, or able-bodied.
‐‐ Natalie du Toit
I don't think of myself as being invincible anymore.
‐‐ Curtis Sliwa
I don't think of myself as being troubled as a human being, but I guess I'm quite extreme, quite big and quite loud, and maybe people pick up on that when they cast me. I'm certainly not the quiet reflective type.
‐‐ Ben Daniels
I don't think of myself as doing good works. It's not, 'Oh, I must give these poor people a voice.'
‐‐ Lenny Abrahamson
I don't think of myself as either American or Australian really, I'm a true hybrid. It's a good thing for me because both of them are really good countries.
‐‐ Mel Gibson
I don't think of myself as funny - I don't fill up a room with my humor... I would fail miserably as a stand-up comedian.
‐‐ Steve Carell
I don't think of myself as funny. I think of myself as rather grave, actually. And I'm suspicious of fun. I never quite know what that is or how to deal with it or how to generate it. That's my fault. I know it's a burden on the people I'm with. It's tiresome.
‐‐ Hugh Laurie
I don't think of myself as giving interviews. I just have conversations. That gets me in trouble.
‐‐ Charles Barkley
I don't think of myself as hot or cool or anything, just a dork.
‐‐ Ashley Olsen
I don't think of myself as offbeat and weird. As a kid, I saw myself as the type of guy who would run into a burning building to save the baby.
‐‐ Christian Slater
I don't think of myself as Scottish or lesbian when I sit down and write. I am glad I have broken out of that limited audience.
‐‐ Val McDermid
I don't think of myself as unbreakable. Perhaps I'm just rather flexible and adaptable.
‐‐ Aung San Suu Kyi
I don't think of myself in a political way, though I am definitely a feminist.
‐‐ Nicole Holofcener
I don't think of myself predicting things. I'm expressing possibilities. Things that could happen. To a large extent it's a question of how badly people want them to.
‐‐ Freeman Dyson
I don't think of people as black or white. It's a question of are they photogenic or not? I don't think anyone says, 'Let's book her. She's black.' I think they say, 'Let's book her. She's good.' We've come that far.
‐‐ Eileen Ford
I don't think of poetry as a 'rational' activity but as an aural one. My poems usually begin with words or phrases which appeal more because of their sound than their meaning, and the movement and phrasing of a poem are very important to me.
‐‐ Margaret Atwood
I don't think of reflection on dark things as necessarily dark.
‐‐ C. K. Williams
I don't think of sex as a self-destructive impulse.
‐‐ Thom Gunn

‐‐ Jonathan Demme
I don't think of the characters as being good or bad because that doesn't help me as a writer.
‐‐ Bryan Cogman
I don't think of them as teenage songs. The things that happen to you in high school are the same things that happen your entire life. You can fall in love at 60; you can get rejected at 80.
‐‐ Mark Hoppus
I don't think of work between albums. Of course, I go through regular life and I live and I experience different things, good and bad, and it does help me, but I don't think about writing or what I'm gonna do with whatever's going on while I'm going through it.
‐‐ Jazmine Sullivan
I don't think once you book a part you should stop going to class. I think you should constantly remind yourself that you're working and that you're working on getting better.
‐‐ Tiffany Thornton
I don't think one gets to choose the kind of comedy he/she does. I may not talk about Rahul Gandhi's take on an ordinance, but I will talk about things as simple as a 'chappal' or a 'sherwani.' My comedy is about small things, and that is how it connects.
‐‐ Vir Das
I don't think one moment in somebody's life is going to define them.
‐‐ Ndamukong Suh
I don't think one ought to bring a clearly disabled child into the world.
‐‐ John Sulston
I don't think one party has a bad vision over the other party. I have no doubts that every Indian and every Indian political leadership would like to see this country get to a much better level. We would all like to see inclusive growth.
‐‐ Baba Kalyani
I don't think one should be comfortable standing on a stage with people applauding and laughing at every stupid thing you say.
‐‐ Joaquin Phoenix
I don't think one should ever come to my stage of life and have to look back and say, Gosh. I wish I hadn't spent all those years doing that job I was never really interested in.
‐‐ Charles Kuralt
I don't think one should incentivise the losing of teeth. I find the idea of a child getting an iPad, or a £20 note, for losing a tooth, utterly abhorrent. Fifty pence, or a pound at most, is what my children can expect from the Tooth Fairy.
‐‐ Isla Fisher
I don't think opposites attract. I think like attracts like. So I don't think that they do attract, opposites. Only when you're talking about magnetic poles.
‐‐ Ashton Kutcher
I don't think Osama is a Muslim. I don't think Osama is a human being.
‐‐ Hamid Karzai
I don't think our government really has much of a policy about air travel. I would compare the policies of United Arab Emirates, which has done a terrific job recognizing the value of transportation, of travel.
‐‐ Jeff Smisek
I don't think our music has much to do with math rock.
‐‐ Ian Williams
I don't think paper will go away. I do believe that the value of paper will change, and Xerox is working on changing that value. Consider a color page. Actual life is in color, but you keep reproducing it in black and white. You remove value. It's a bad thing to do.
‐‐ Ursula Burns
I don't think parents always know where their children are going or what they are doing, what they are up to.
‐‐ Nicholas Hoult
I don't think parents can protect their kids in this media-nut culture.
‐‐ Dick Van Dyke
I don't think patience is something that any of us grow up with in a large dose. It's a world of instant gratification.
‐‐ Tim Cope
I don't think Paul Thomas Anderson has a standard approach to anything.
‐‐ Katherine Waterston
I don't think people are ever going to a place where they're like, 'I'm over stories about character and love.'
‐‐ Cameron Crowe
I don't think people are fans of me because I wrote hit songs. I think they're fans because I'm a lunatic or a weirdo. The hit songs came out of my idiosyncratic personality, not the other way around.
‐‐ Billy Corgan
I don't think people are fools, and I think they deserve a good attitude and smart entertainment.
‐‐ Tatyana Tolstaya
I don't think people are going to switch over to bikes because it's good for them or because it's politically correct. They're going to do it because it gets them from A to B faster.
‐‐ David Byrne
I don't think people buy records because of anything that happens on Facebook. They buy records cause they're friends say 'I bought this record and I love it.'
‐‐ Billy Corgan
I don't think people buy technology products because of the personalities of the people behind them.
‐‐ Jim Balsillie
I don't think people by nature are extremists. You will never find a population of extremists. Extremists have existed throughout the centuries on all religions. And what happens is, extremists start to have more leverage when the situation is bad.
‐‐ Queen Rania of Jordan
