More quotes by 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
My life and happiness speaks for itself.
Tyler Oakley
I'm a human just like any of the people that you adore, whether they're in TV shows or movies or they're writers or YouTubers. Their lives are not perfect.
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
It feels like an amazing opportunity to positively impact the world. That's what I hope to do.
Tyler Oakley
If you are just yourself, that's when people start gravitating towards you because nobody else can be you except you. Be authentic, don't give up, and start today.
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'm usually so in control, especially for YouTube videos.
Tyler Oakley
There was no Twitter when I was in high school, so I can't even imagine the pressures or the expectations of pursuing likes or living life in that kind of mentality.
Tyler Oakley
I come up with new ambitions all the time - and the coolest thing is, I think of something I want to do, and I don't really imagine it as Oh, I've never done that. I think of it as, Oh, I haven't done that yet. I literally believe I'm going to do everything I set out to do, which is a pretty amazing feeling.
Tyler Oakley
I can have a thousand people say the nicest things, but I'll always notice the one person who doesn't get me.
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
Over the last eight years of being on YouTube, I've seen so much progress. I think the reason for that is that a lot of young people are having open dialogue and honest conversations about social justice and human rights.
Tyler Oakley
I'm a firm believer in making it happen - no matter what 'it' is. Sometimes I feel a bit too driven - where it's all I think about. But I guess that's gotten me to where I am, so I can't complain.
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'm one of those YouTubers who doesn't daily-vlog, so my life may seem very open, but my audience only really sees probably 50%. I keep a lot to myself, and I cherish the things that are for me and the people closest to me.
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
Care less about what other people think because at the end of the day, everyone is so worried about themselves & how they are coming across that nobody is actually judging as much as y'all think they are.
Tyler Oakley
I wanted to do something that small towns would enjoy.
Tyler Oakley
You have to fall in love with yourself first, and if someone wants to join you, more power to them!
