I must stay true to myself and take my own path all the way.

Always stay true to yourselves.

If there's a common thread to my books, it is that each involves an individual's journey. The individual must stay true to themselves.

I stayed on my own path and did not follow the herd. I made a way for myself.

Stay true to your own voice, and don't worry about needing to be liked or what anybody else thinks. Keep your eyes on your own paper.

I've never looked at myself and said that I need to be a certain way to be around a certain sort of people. I've always wanted to stay true to myself, and I've managed to do that. People have to accept that.
