Dana Plato Quotes

Today I trust my instinct, I trust myself. Finally.

I'm coming from a place of total strength and humility now.

I don't feel sorry for myself.

I learned not to care what other people think.

I had to learn how to trust my gut. Trust what I know to be right... not right, but not waver on who I am. Know who I am, know what I want, and know it. Not waver on it and be secure in that. And I still struggle with it. But I really... I can't be moved. You can't move me, and that all comes with loving myself, and I'm like my best buddy.

It doesn't matter what people think of me. I've lived my life.

I'm just a human being that is in touch with myself. And I'm honest with myself. And I really, at the end of the day, don't care what people say. I never cared about what people say.

I am proud of who I am, and nobody's going to steal that.

Once you have been through a certain amount of things in life, you definitely grow more comfortable with yourself. To persevere and hang in there and believe in yourself.

Don't let what others think or say get in your way; their actions reflect on them, not you.

You have enough people against you... be for yourself.

I understand now that the vulnerability I've always felt is the greatest strength a person can have. You can't experience life without feeling life. What I've learned is that being vulnerable to somebody you love is not a weakness, it's a strength.

Trust your gut. You know yourself, so don't let somebody else tell you who you are.

I'm getting rid of this idea that you want people to like you. I'm making decisions on what feels right to me. To act in a more carnal way. That's my challenge.

I am a strong woman with or without this other person, with or without this job, and with or without these tight pants.

I just come do what I've got to do, play my game. And I don't worry if anybody likes it.

I'm not gonna apologize for who I am and what I've gone through.

You come to a point in your life when you really don't care what people think about you, you just care what you think about yourself.

I have no control over what people think of me but I have 100% control of what I think of myself, and that is so important. And not just about your body, but so many ways of confidence. You're constantly learning how to be confident, aren't you?

I master my doubts now. I have fun with them, they're my travelling companions.

But I also enjoy life... the more scrutiny I am under, the more confident I become. I am who I am. I can't do anything about it, and I love who I am.

I also learned to be more confident, to trust my instincts more.

I think that as you get older, you learn to live in yourself more securely.

No matter what happens to you, you can maintain your own control about what you believe and who you are.

I've learned to try to sustain myself by holding on to the integrity of who I am. I'm not talking big diva. I'm quiet. I'm shy. And I became stronger when I stopped trying to be the person they wanted me to be.
