Don't think. Thinking is the enemy of creativity. It's self-conscious, and anything self-conscious is lousy. You can't try to do things. You simply must do things.
Ray Bradbury
Everyone's projecting onto you, or you feel like everyone is judging you. I feel like I'm being judged a lot of the time. You become really self-conscious.
Kate Moss
For a while I couldn't leave the house by myself. Even if I was just grocery shopping alone, I'd get self-conscious.
Shannen Doherty
For me, the first fact of human existence is the human body. But if you embrace the reality of the human body, you embrace mortality, and that is a very difficult thing for anything to do because the self-conscious mind cannot imagine non-existence. It's impossible to do.
David Cronenberg
I admire our ancestors, whoever they were. I think the first self-conscious person must have shaken in his boots. Because as he becomes self-conscious, he's no longer part of nature. He sees himself against nature. He looks at the vastness of the universe and it looks hostile.
John Shelby Spong
I don't really like to play live. I don't like to be on stage. I feel very self-conscious.
Peter Steele
I don't want it to be all that self-conscious or artificial, but it really grows out of my having invented myself as a listener so that I could hear her voice.
Russell Banks
I have two books that were published quite some time ago. I start to read about three sentences. I have to close it. I am so self-conscious. Who did I think I was?
Patty Duke
I think my voice worked out fine, but it was a lot of work for me. And I was very self-conscious about it. I was a bit self-conscious about writing lyrics too.
Jerry Harrison
I was always a self-conscious person.
Elia Kazan
I was pretty dead set against ever writing an academic novel. It's always been my view that there are already more than enough academic novels and that most of them aren't any good. Most of them are self-conscious and bitter, the work of people who want to settle grudges.
Richard Russo
I'm very self-conscious having my picture taken, so I clown around. My driver's license photo looks like a blonde Elvis.
Emily Procter
It avoids a self-conscious relationship to the act. We live in the most self-conscious society in the history of mankind. There are good things in that, but there are also terrible things. The worst of it is, that we find it hard to give ourselves to the cultural process.
Larry Harvey
It is, I think, an indisputable fact that Americans are, as Americans, the most self-conscious people in the world, and the most addicted to the belief that the other nations of the earth are in a conspiracy to under value them.
Henry James
My vanity is not remotely physical, it is cerebral. I suppose feeling self-conscious might be a form of vanity, though.
Richard Griffiths
Strangers still leave me self-conscious.
Alan Ladd
There's almost a fear that if you understood too deeply the way you arrived at choices, you could become self-conscious. In any case, many ideas which are full of personal meaning seem rather banal when you put words to them.
Peter Weir
There's something about prime time television and the way the song is going to come off on the air. I'm very concerned, very self-conscious about that.
Jon Secada
We all self-conscious. I'm just the first to admit it.
Kanye West
We are all very individual. You have to find out what you can do best, and be self-conscious about that.
