Talking much about oneself can also be a means to conceal oneself.
You wear a mask for so long, you forget who you were beneath it.
When you shoot nude, you always find a way to, like, cover yourself up in a way. So you really don't feel like you're truly naked because you're still covering yourself.
When we hide our failings from others, we seek to hide them from ourselves, and it is in the latter attempt that we are most successful.
I think I've been pretty private as a person. Nobody really knows me.
We are so accustomed to disguise ourselves to others that in the end we become disguised to ourselves.
The only way I could endure being a coward was if I was the only one who knew it.
I chose to camouflage my body into the environment because this way, people will pay more attention to the background's social property, and the meaning of my body disappeared in this environment as an individual.
I hid my deepest feelings so well I forgot where I placed them.
I'd always maintained an image so that people wouldn't approach me.
What once was an expression of who I was - acting - also became my hiding place.

One can ever assume to be what he is not, and to conceal what he is.

People ask who I am as an artist, who I am as a person. I don't ever want to tell them who I am; you can find that out in the music.
What does that mean know me, know me, nobody ever knows anybody else, ever! You will never know me.
Some people have an identity. I have an alibi. I have a shadow self.
I manage to hide in my movies.
I have packed myself into silence so deeply and for so long that I can never unpack myself using words. When I speak, I only pack myself a little differently.
Gabriel Garcia Marquez was a newspaperman originally in Colombia. He talked about - and I agree - how everybody has a public life, a private life, and a secret life.
I felt that just looking at the world in general, there are so many types of people, and some hide who they truly are. And I feel that every person has some kind of warped identity inside them that they decide if they want to show or not.
I was hiding behind athletics and all my jockitude, so I didn't have to deal with being ostracized as the weird art kid.
I am an appalling softie. But somehow, somewhere along the line, I've learnt how to hide it.
In repose, my face looks as though I had gone through a terrible deal in the last five minutes. I have to disguise the expression and get a glassy-eyed look. That's something I learned from my dog.
