Dr. King, if he were alive today, probably would simply be a minister, a pastor. His initial intent was, indeed, just to be a preacher. He didn't have any egotistical desire or need to be a public figure or celebrity. He got drafted - or, really, dragged into it - initially in Montgomery.

David Garrow

It's essential to feel beautiful to oneself. Not in an egotistical way, but in a self-loving way.

Amber Valletta

Pure entertainment is not an egotistical lady singing boring songs onstage for two hours and people in tuxes clapping whether they like it or not. It's the real performers on the street who can hold people's attention and keep them from walking away.

Andy Kaufman

Politics in Slovakia had long been a battle between egotistical men. Caputova sought to be the anti-ego alternative.

Anne Applebaum

I think life on the road really suits very egotistical men. It's set up for kings.

Annie Lennox

I'm not a diva, I'm not an egotistical guy that comes and thinks he's bigger than anyone.

Ashley Cole

The more self-centered and egotistical a guy is, the better ballplayer he's going to be.

Bill Lee

I've become a functioning cog in the machine called The Roots, but in my youth I was comin' from a more braggadocious, egotistical perspective.

Black Thought

I don't mean it egotistically, but I've been given the chance to be in front of people and sing, and I feel that it's part of my job and my duty - especially where I'm from - to speak the language of the people I'm around and speak for them.

Brian Fallon

It's such an egotistical thing to be able to just stand there and say, 'Action!' It's like being a little mini-god.

Brian Helgeland

The thing about Prince Harry is that he has no choice. He's not some egotistical rock star who wants loads of attention. That is his life. He didn't ask for it, but he just has to deal with it.

Caroline Flack

I always liked church. I was one of those kids who was desperate for the statue of Mary to talk to me, which is a very egotistical approach to your faith. I just wanted somebody to pay attention to me.

Carrie Coon

Well I don't want to talk about myself, that's so rude and egotistical.

Christine Lavin

I have a very big conflict with the individualization of love. I feel like it's egotistical to just love one person when you can love so many of them. I feel so much love that I declare myself a lover of all.

Concha Buika

In my younger years my dedication may have expressed itself egotistically.

Cyril Cusack

I get egotistical about things where I can do something well - for example, my singing. Most other things, I don't have the wherewithal to back it up.

David Crosby

Dr. King, if he were alive today, probably would simply be a minister, a pastor. His initial intent was, indeed, just to be a preacher. He didn't have any egotistical desire or need to be a public figure or celebrity. He got drafted - or, really, dragged into it - initially in Montgomery.

David Garrow

I think personality correction is necessary for successful men, like prime ministers, businessmen, politicians... it's essential that one should keep an eye on one's own personality. You must have seen people in politics who become chief ministers and then pass into oblivion - how egotistical they became and how pathetic they look.

Dilip Kumar

There is, I think, great difficulty in writing of one's self: it is almost impossible to present subjects where the chief actor must be conspicuous and not seem to be, or really be, egotistical.

Dorothea Dix

I'm not no egotistical person. I just want what I'm supposed to get. Not a penny more, not a penny less.

Dr. Dre

My head is always up, and if I see some player in a better position, I give the ball to him automatically. Sometimes I need to be more egotistical and put my head down.
