I have never limited myself by focusing much on being a 'normal' teenager.
Ignore the glass ceiling and do your work. If you're focusing on the glass ceiling, focusing on what you don't have, focusing on the limitations, then you will be limited. My way was to work, make my short... make my documentary... make my small films... use my own money... raise money myself... and stay shooting and focused on each project.
Why do we spend so much of our limited time on this earth focusing on all the things that our eulogies will never cover?
Normal! He thought. Normal! I don't want things to be normal. Normal is always being left out, never belonging.
My life is certainly not common, but I think of myself as... a 'normal' teenager.
I was a teenager and it was tough years for me. Being able to bring myself into a character and live in somebody else's world was so important for me emotionally. I couldn't express things well in my normal life. I was so overwhelmed by my emotions.
I can't pretend to be a teenager, but I feel like I never really stopped being a teenager.
I'm never really going to be the normal teenager.
People say, 'Do you ever miss being a normal teenager?'
I never thought of myself as being limited to fashion. I'm a designer, and if you have a vision, you can apply that to anything.
It's not the most normal life in the world, but I screw up plenty of times to be a normal teenager.
Being a teenager, a gay teenager, in such a small village is not that much fun. I am part of the gay community and most gays have a similar story to mine.
Becoming a good player so quickly made me miss a lot of the normal life of a normal teenager.
In a way, I'm lucky that I was never classically trained and never went to a music college. I'm just from a normal working class family and happened to get obsessed with music as a teenager.
I think what you feel like as a teenager never really goes away. If you were teased for being fat or thin or having bad teeth, you're always insecure about that particular area of yourself. So I've never thought of myself as any kind of beauty, iconic or otherwise.
The condition of alienation, of being asleep, of being unconscious, of being out of one’s mind, is the condition of the normal man. Society highly values its normal man. It educates children to lose themselves and to become absurd, and thus to be normal. Normal men have killed perhaps 100,000,000 of their fellow normal men in the last fifty years.
Win or lose you will never regret working hard, making sacrifices, being disciplined or focusing too much. Success is measured by what we have done to prepare for competition.
