Me Quotes
Quotes rooted in the first person.

Several speak to the solitary nature of creative work, something also explored in Life Quotes.

Every player had a roommate for out-of-town games, so I had to slip into the bathroom early each morning and secretly take my insulin injection. I feared that if the Cubs found out and I slumped badly, they would attribute it to the diabetes and send me back to the minors - or worse, release me.
