Politics is based on social identity, and so, again, there is going to be differences between rural and urban and between left and right.
The best teams are team in any sport that lose themselves in the team. The individuals lose their identity. And their identities come about as a result of being in the team first.
Kenya is rapidly developing its industry and manufacturing, and its cultural identity as a new country. We had a humongous history pre-British, and when we were colonized and violently reshuffled, we had to decide who we were again. We couldn't rest on the stories and the cultures of our great-grandparents.
Without a sense of identity, there can be no real struggle.
I lost my public self, or had it stolen. In a way, it was a form of identity theft.
Many a man who has known himself at ten forgets himself utterly between ten and thirty.
Just because I believe in the identity and integrity of my country doesn't make a xenophobe or a nationalist.
In my career, I've really wanted to sort of be a morpher and not show my own identity.
To be idle requires a strong sense of personal identity.
Probably. It's a weird thing with accents. When I was in drama school my accent probably got stronger because of that sense of identity when you leave home and go to somewhere where there are loads of people from different places.

I can imagine for some bands the ability to make your sound and make your identity known could be challenging.
I'm interested in that whole question of where we wear our identity and how can we see it.
Look at 4chan culture, which is the ultimate version of shedding your IRL [in real life] identity - you don't even keep a consistent screen name from thread to thread. That's very important to them, this belief in the possibility that what I do online is completely separate from who I really am.
In a sense we're all children of God - Jesus is called the one and only Son. Monogeneo is the word, God's only "genetic" child. He bears the very essence of God. What we say about God we say about Jesus. So the promise rises and falls on the identity of Jesus.
The power of meditation gets us everything. If you want to get power over nature, [you can have it through meditation]. It is through the power of meditation all scientific facts are discovered today. They study the subject and forget everything, their own identity and everything, and then the great fact comes like a flash. Some people think that is inspiration. There is no more inspiration than there is expiration; and never was anything got for nothing.
Battling evil, cruelty, and injustice allows us to retain our identity, a sense of meaning, and ultimately our freedom.
I've reached the 50th year of my life, and now every question related with life also includes thinking about death. When I leave, I want to leave to my offspring a clear idea about identity.
Clarifying your identity helps you just talk to ladies.
Realize that the surface personality has no interest in anything which might disturb its darling delusions.
