We all want to be identified as someone cool, and I have struggled with repping where I'm from and my heritage before. It's part of growing pains. But when people see me being proud of what I am - and they are what I am too - it makes them proud. That's why I try to represent my Asian and my black side.

Saweetie

You can't put a price on being proud of what you do.

Amul Thapar

I always had trouble being proud of how they were using me in WCW. It was hard for me to be interested in what they were doing, and what they were doing with me was pretty pathetic.

Bret Hart

Imitation is the highest form of flattery, but clones kind of get it wrong because we are promoting individuality and being proud of being yourself.

Brian Molko

Some people think that horror films are some sort of second class filmmaking, and the only way to bypass that thinking is being proud of the fact that we do it.

Clive Barker

There is something inherently valuable about being a misfit. It's not to say that every person who has artistic talent was a social outcast, but there is definitely a value for identifying yourself differently and being proud that you are different.

Daniel Radcliffe

Don't get me wrong. I don't have a problem with anyone being proud to be a parent. I love children, some of my best friends used to be children. But I was fed up of these 'competitions,' so I decided to do the opposite, I decided to do the non-motherhood challenge and post five photos of myself which made me proud not to be a mother.

Ellie Taylor

I think the whole definition of a geek is somebody being passionate and focused, and being proud of saying that they're passionate and focused, on a narrow range of subjects.

Felicia Day

I have every reason, despite the resentment and exasperation, to be proud. I have nothing better to be proud of than being proud of German unity.

Helmut Kohl

Being proud of who we are as people is more important than cutting into ourselves to create this false idea of beauty.

Isla Fisher

Being proud and being nationalistic are, for me, completely different things.

Jean Reno

Sometimes we look at gay being a bigger sin than being proud or not telling the truth. I don't think God categorizes sins.

Joel Osteen

Staying humble has always been really important to me, and always being proud of what you're representing.

Jordyn Wieber

I remember I went through a period where I didn't embrace my 'chocolatiness.' I don't know if that's a word, but I didn't embrace my chocolate lifestyle. Just being a chocolate, lovely brown skin girl and being proud of that.

Kelly Rowland

'Born this Way' is about being yourself, and loving who you are and being proud.

Lady Gaga

Being born gay, black, and female is not a revolutionary act. Being proud to be a gay black female is.

Lena Waithe

There's nothing wrong with being proud of who you are. It's a wonderful thing.

Matthew Moy

It is all about quality of life and being proud of what I do. I need me to be me.

Patrick Cox

Growing up, I naturally embraced who I was, but I was always battling with myself. So I spent half my time being proud of being a woman and the other half completely hating it.

Rupi Kaur

We all want to be identified as someone cool, and I have struggled with repping where I'm from and my heritage before. It's part of growing pains. But when people see me being proud of what I am - and they are what I am too - it makes them proud. That's why I try to represent my Asian and my black side.

Saweetie

I've been nothing several times. But it's my faith in myself and in my father that comes back to me and makes me get back up off my butt and be something worth being proud of.
