Inspiring quotes on Individuality and personal freedom

The individual has always had to struggle to keep from
being overwhelmed by the tribe. To be your own man
is a hard business. If you try it, you will be lonely
often, and sometimes frightened. But no price is too
high to pay for the privilege of owning yourself.
Rudyard Kipling

To some extent we draw who we are. Our whole personality
is involved in the making of analytic and aesthetic decisions,
and our personal preferences form the basis for work that
should always be an expression of our individuality.
Mick Maslen

We live in a context, but we're also individuals.
We need to explore both.
Nitin Sawhney

I have simply wished to assert the reasoned and independent
feeling of my own individuality within a total knowledge
of tradition.
Henri Matisse
