“Don't be a pretender, but be what you Are.”
“Be careful what you pretend to be because you are what you pretend to be.”
“If you don't want your children to hear what you're saying, pretend you're talking to them.”
“What's terrible is to pretend that second-rate is first-rate. To pretend that you don't need love when you do; or you like your work when you know quite well you're capable of better.”
“The only thing you should be faking is confidence. If you don't have it yet, pretend that you do. Pretend you're not nervous, pretend you're not scared, and after a while, the pretend part disappears.”
“Don't pretend to care. I don't need you as an anesthetic.”
