More quotes by Tyler Oakley
I first discovered YouTube while browsing the web, and then I found people just talking into their cameras. I never even knew it was a thing you could do.
Tyler Oakley
I keep a lot to myself, and I cherish the things that are for me and the people closest to me.
Tyler Oakley
The only constant you have from Point A, your birth to Point B, your death is you. There is no point in changing who you are to appease others when they're gonna leave your life. LOVE YOURSELF because you're the only one who's stuck with yourself. Fall in love with who you are and if anybody wants to join in on that. More Power to them.
Tyler Oakley
I remember having 100 views on a video and being like, I don't have a hundred friends. So that was a moment.
Tyler Oakley
I am a fangirl of talent, so to see someone slaying the competition doing what I'd love to do, that's inspiring to me.
Tyler Oakley
I try to surround myself with a good support system. Whether that's other creators or my family or my friends, or even my viewers, who encourage me just as much as I might encourage them and they're just as much a part of my life as they let me be a part of theirs.
Tyler Oakley
I hope you learn to love yourself for who you are and what you look like, and how you were born to be, because you are perfect in your own way.

Everybody on YouTube starts with zero subscribers. You think of everyone you look up to or have watched for years or whatever, they may seem like this is their life now, but it wasn't always that.
Tyler Oakley
I came from a pretty accepting community, and my school had a lot of openly gay and LGBT-plus people. When I joined YouTube, I saw a lot more hostility than I saw in my everyday life.
Tyler Oakley
I just try to surround myself with good, positive supportive people who are trying to make the world better.
Tyler Oakley
The Internet is accelerating the speed of acceptance and social justice.
Tyler Oakley
There will always be people that will have assumptions about you, about my character, my personality, or that I might put on a show of being gay or something, or that I play up stereotypes or anything like that. It's always funny to me that those people are typically the people that know me the least.
Tyler Oakley
The type of person that might thrive on Vine in a six-second clip might not be the same kind of entertainer who would shine on a 10-minute vlog on YouTube. If anything, having these different platforms gives more people a chance to creatively express themselves.
Tyler Oakley
I'm a firm believer in making it happen - no matter what 'it' is.
Tyler Oakley
I have always kept my personal relationships pretty private, whether it's intimate or my family or friends - at least in videos. It's always been something that I've sworn off from sharing online.
Tyler Oakley
I don't think kids should think their lives have to be perfect or have a filter or the best angle or anything like that. I think it's important to see that everybody is human and everyone has their ups and downs.
Tyler Oakley
One thing I've learned best from my mom is to be yourself and not everyone will get you and that's okay. I try to bring that into everything that I do and just understand that I will not be everyone's cup of tea and that's fine.
Tyler Oakley
I literally cannot even. I can't even. I am unable to even. I have lost my ability to even. I am so unable to even.
Tyler Oakley
My life and happiness speaks for itself.
Tyler Oakley
I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
