It is my assertion, however, that the project of remaking humanity and defining identity has been at the core of this century, and that much of this project was characterized by a tremendous destructive urge followed by a long and as yet uncompleted process of coming to terms with the disasters it has produced and is still producing in many parts of the world. — Omer Bartov

Before doing 'Midnight's Children,' I didn't really have a chance to explore my Indian side. The Indian side of my heritage was always present, but it did not particularly define my identity. Being English was more an identity-defining status. I was born and brought up in London. Yes, my father is Parsi. — Satya Bhabha
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Peter Enns Defining Your Identity Quotes By Peter Enns](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-peter-enns-2117802.jpg)
In the spiritual life, the opposite of fear is not courage, but trust. Branch out. Not only do our beliefs define us, but so does the community of like-minded people who share those beliefs. Christian traditions, denominations, and congregations provide a group identity. We are social animals, so we should not judge our spiritual groups, or those of others, as necessarily a problem. Only when our communities become the defining element of our spiritual lives, packs that protect those boundaries at all costs, do problems begin. That leads to isolation, "us versus them" thinking, and the illusion that "we" are basically right about the Bible and God and "they" aren't - the kind of wall-building that Jesus and Paul criticized. So much can be learned from — Peter Enns
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By George W. Bush Defining Your Identity Quotes By George W. Bush](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-george-w-bush-2023554.jpg)
Really proud of it. A great campaign. And I'm really pleased with the organization and the thousands of South Carolinians that worked on my behalf. And I'm very gracious and humbled. — George W. Bush
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Jane Olson Defining Your Identity Quotes By Jane Olson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-jane-olson-2004052.jpg)
Comfort foods they may have been, but helpful foods they most definitely were not. By merging my identity with certain foods and thinking of them as old friends, I found myself in the food equivalent of a co-dependent, destructive relationship. I was allowing food to have the power of defining me as a person. And those foods had defined me, all right; they'd defined me as fat, miserable, out of breath, lacking in energy and self-worth, and looking terrible in sweat pants. If I was going to insist on relating to food as a friend, then clearly I needed new friends. — Jane Olson
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Meg Jay Defining Your Identity Quotes By Meg Jay](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-meg-jay-1916475.jpg)
Distinctiveness is a fundamental part of identity. We develop a clearer sense of ourselves by firming up the boundaries between ourselves and others. I am who I am because of how I am different from those around me. There is a point to my life because it cannot be carried out in exactly the same way by any other person. Differentness is part of what makes us who we are. It gives our lives meaning. — Meg Jay
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Franco Santoro Defining Your Identity Quotes By Franco Santoro](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-franco-santoro-1698961.jpg)
Let go of your constant strife to sustain and assert the idea of who you are. It is this massive effort of defining your identity that keeps you wedged in the chronic routine of comparisons and conflicts with whoever and whatever appears to threaten this idea. If you have tried to assert yourself for many years and you have accomplished nothing, then be honest and do something different. Just be nothing. Try it for one day. Release your idea of being yourself, and just be nothing, be the void. And as you are being nothing you may realise that you can be all that is — Franco Santoro
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Tom DeMarco Defining Your Identity Quotes By Tom DeMarco](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-tom-demarco-1665957.jpg)
Successful change can only come in the context of a clear understanding of what may never change, what the organization stands for. This is what Peter Drucker calls the organization's culture. Culture, as he uses the term, is that which cannot, will not, and must not change. We talk a lot about changing corporate culture, as though it were just another parameter of the organization, like an SIC code or address. But Drucker would have us look at culture entirely differently, as the bedrock upon which any constructive change will have to rest. If nothing is declared unchangeable, then the organization will resist all change. When there is no defining vision, the only way the organization can define itself is its stasis. Like the human creature that fights wildly to resist changing whatever it considers its identity, the corporate organism without vision will hold on to stasis as its only meaningful definition of self. — Tom DeMarco
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Timothy Keller Defining Your Identity Quotes By Timothy Keller](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-timothy-keller-1484522.jpg)
To make a name in the language of the Bible is to construct an identity for ourselves. We either get our name - our defining essence, security, worth, and uniqueness - from what God has done for us and in us (Revelation 2:17), or we make a name through what we can do for ourselves. — Timothy Keller
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz Defining Your Identity Quotes By Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-roxanne-dunbar-ortiz-1439963.jpg)
the out-of-control momentum of extreme violence of unlimited warfare fueled race hatred. "Successive generations of Americans, both soldiers and civilians, made the killing of Indian men, women, and children a defining element of their first military tradition and thereby part of a shared American identity. — Roxanne Dunbar-Ortiz
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Jonathan Zittrain Defining Your Identity Quotes By Jonathan Zittrain](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-jonathan-zittrain-225893.jpg)
I think social networking is absolutely here to stay. Now, whether or not the label will Facebook forever, depends in part, I think, on whether Facebook wants to try to be less proprietary, be more central to the operation of defining and stewarding identity online. — Jonathan Zittrain
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Andrej Pejic Defining Your Identity Quotes By Andrej Pejic](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-andrej-pejic-1235271.jpg)
I'm not a big fan of identity politics and sort of picking one thing and defining yourself with it. — Andrej Pejic
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Cristina Marrero Defining Your Identity Quotes By Cristina Marrero](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-cristina-marrero-1189937.jpg)
Everyone wears clothing, yes? Society divides these clothing up into Men & Women's, Boys & Girls', Jr. & Miss. But society cannot decide who wears what. While the fabric may be cut to suit a traditionally male or female body (boy or girls body), the second the buyer purchases the item, that clothing no longer becomes 'boys' or 'girls' clothes, but rather, the buyers clothes. This is an example of the individual defining the identity term vs. the identity term defining the individual. — Cristina Marrero
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Nancy Pearcey Defining Your Identity Quotes By Nancy Pearcey](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-nancy-pearcey-999980.jpg)
When a worldview exchanges the Creator for something in creation, it will also exchange a high view of humans made in God's image for a lower view of humans made in the image of something in creation. Humans are not self-existent, self-sufficient, or self-defining. They did not create themselves. They are finite, dependent, contingent beings. As a result, they will always look outside themselves for their ultimate identity and meaning. They will define human nature by its relationship to the divine - however they define divinity. Those who do not get their identity from a transcendent Creator will get it from something in creation. — Nancy Pearcey

Don't worry, spiders,

![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Michael Booth Defining Your Identity Quotes By Michael Booth](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-michael-booth-963160.jpg)
Parochialism remains the Danes' defining characteristic, but their radically recalibrated sense of identity and national pride has created a curious duality best described as a kind of "humble pride," though many often mistake it for smugness. — Michael Booth
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Tim Hiller Defining Your Identity Quotes By Tim Hiller](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-tim-hiller-905855.jpg)
We usually don't realize the thing that is defining our identity until that thing is taken away. — Tim Hiller
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By John Burnside Defining Your Identity Quotes By John Burnside](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-john-burnside-791688.jpg)
For a bird, especially for the more musically inventive, song is the defining characteristic, the primary way by which it knows itself and is known by others. To lose its species song is to lose not just its identity but some part of its presence in the world. — John Burnside
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Ralph Waldo Emerson Defining Your Identity Quotes By Ralph Waldo Emerson](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-ralph-waldo-emerson-586601.jpg)
This defining is philosophy. Philosophy is the account which the human mind gives to itself of the constitution of the world. Two cardinal facts lie forever at the base; the one, and the two. - 1. Unity, or Identity; and, 2. Variety. We unite all things by perceiving the law which pervades them; by perceiving the superficial differences and the profound resemblances. But every mental act, - this very perception of identity or oneness, recognizes the difference of things. Oneness and otherness. It is impossible to speak or to think without embracing both. — Ralph Waldo Emerson
![Defining Your Identity Quotes By Sabrina Jeffries Defining Your Identity Quotes By Sabrina Jeffries](https://quotessayings.net/pics/defining-your-identity-quote-by-sabrina-jeffries-516972.jpg)
Horns. The skull had horns His heart sank. Only one pirate ship bore that flag - the Satyr.
To make sure, he looked for the figurehead. When he saw the telltale carving of the mythological half-goat, half-man, he groaned aloud. Then he lifted his glass, and saw the black-haired man standing in the bow. It was the Satyr, all right. And its demon owner Captain Gideon Horn.
Tis the Pirate Lord himself! — Sabrina Jeffries
