A Quote by John Barrowman

Never apologize for being nerdy, because un-nerdy people never apologize for being assholes. — © John Barrowman
Never apologize for being nerdy, because un-nerdy people never apologize for being assholes.
Never apologize for being nerdy.
I will never apologize for being me, speaking the truth & giving all of me to the world. I will never apologize for being real & how I feel.
I was a pretty nerdy kid. I was pretty nerdy. I'm still kind of nerdy. I have all of the worst qualities of being a nerd - all of the affect and none of the smarts. I'm a useless nerd! That's pretty bad.
Being nerdy just means being passionate about something, including everyone - the coolest people on Earth are passionate and therefore nerdy about something whatever it is, whether it's sports, or gaming, or technology, or fashion, or beauty, or food, or whatever.
The cliche of the nerdy kid who doesn't go outside and just plays games is completely untrue. And it's also true for the nerdy kid who studies comic books and turns into this genius, and it is also true for the nerdy kid who listens to every nerdy thing that Led Zeppelin put out. That kind of obsession in a 16-year-old is not ugly. It's beautiful.
I think it's really important for young audiences to see that you don't have to apologize for being angry when you're angry, and you don't have to apologize for standing up for yourself when people are pushing you around.
Never apologize for showing feeling. When you do so, you apologize for the truth.
Never apologize for what you feel. It's like being sorry for being real.
In our family, being powerful means you never, ever apologize for being a woman.
I was lucky, I got offered places and have had some good opportunities. But it is hard work. I suppose I am a bit of a geek when it comes to acting and doing my work. But I was never really nerdy at school, more slightly naughty, so this is my time to be nerdy.
Never apologize for being yourself.
You will always be too much of something for someone: too big, too loud, too soft, too edgy. If you round out your edges, you lose your edge. Apologize for mistakes. Apologize for unintentionally hurting someone - profusely. But don't apologize for being who you are.
I will never apologize for being me.
Comic books aren't nerdy. You'd have to be an idiot to think computers are nerdy.
For me, the thing that is different about Trump is that you don't realize it, and I didn't realize it, but there is a rhythm that the political press - including myself - expects people to show in terms of embarrassing statements or shameful acts. And that is spinning it away and finally being forced to apologize, and then apologize again.
Always remember who you are. Know that you are never required to apologize to anyone for being yourself.
