Identity Quotes

I look at my voice and my abilities as a gift. I don't feel that I can even take any credit for it, but it's such a huge presence in my life. It is my life. It's my identity, it's everything. And it's given me a great deal of joy and a sense of purpose - I can't imagine my life without it.

When the identity is realized, I as swordsman see no opponent confronting me and threatening to strike me.

My identity shifted when I got into recovery. That's who I am now, and it actually gives me greater pleasure to have that identity than to be a musician or anything else, because it keeps me in a manageable size.

We cannot seriously wish either and thus not a physical enduring at that price.
Hans Jonas
-
