Id love to spend more time on the Isle of Man. I love the anonymity of putting on a boiler suit and going down to buy parts for the compressor. And Norman Wisdoms a neighbour I salute him occasionally.
John Rhys-Davies
Image
He existed a step or two to one side of the common world, largely out of sight, a shadow, all but invisible. Whatever he owned, either he could hoist it on his back and lug it along or he could walk away from it. Anonymity was the thing he loved most about the city, being a part of it and apart from it at the same time.
James Sallis

Publicity in women is detestable. Anonymity runs in their blood. The desire to be veiled still possesses them. They are not even now as concerned about the health of their fame as men are, and, speaking generally, will pass a tombstone or a signpost without feeling an irresistible desire to cut their names on it.
Virginia Woolf

It must be odd, being recognizable. I would hate to lose that anonymity.
Matthew Macfadyen

I think the beauty of chat rooms is that you can have your anonymity of course, and you can choose to be raunchy and sexy and bold. Or you can actually go into certain chat rooms and maybe have an incredibly soulful, meaningful conversation that will change your life or change the other person's life.

The trick to acting is not to show off it's to think the thoughts of the character. I was lucky because when I started acting, it was doing jobs above pubs. I learned to act in anonymity, so by the time people saw me, I knew what I was doing. I was crap for years, but no one saw me being crap. It's a trade you learn.

It appears to me that our sex is only discussed publicly in a derogatory manner. The respectable woman is doomed to anonymity.
Karen Essex

She liked to imagine that when she passed the world looked after her, but she also knew how anonymous she was.
Alice Sebold

I want to be normal. I really want anonymity.
Emma Watson

Anonymity is not necessarily something to shun we don't have to achieve celebrity to make a mark on the world.
Mal Fletcher

The loss of anonymity is something that nobody can prepare you for. When it happened, I recognized that I'd lost one of the most valuable things in life. To this day, I'm not all that happy about it
Harrison Ford

I wanted to have the adoration of John Lennon but have the anonymity of Ringo Starr. I didn't want to be a frontman I just wanted to be back there and still be a rock and roll star at the same time.
Kurt Cobain
Image
I'm asked so often whether I believe in life after death. I do believe in the sanctity of life, the continuity of life and of energy. I know the anonymity of death has no appeal for me. It is the now that I must face and want to face.
Martha Graham
Image
The problem with losing your anonymity is that you can never go back.
Marla Maples

The art of giving is perfected through anonymity.
Douglas Horton

As I holed up in the City of Angels, I was also aware of a comforting feeling of anonymity. In the world's biggest third-class city I could pass unnoticed. I spoke the language. I was familiar with the currency. I could drink the water. I could almost breathe the air, late April air, compounded of interesting hydrocarbons.
John D. MacDonald
Image
Success made me self-sufficient, but it also took away my anonymity. I'm just this quiet nobody, and all of a sudden people are nervous around me. That was kind of weird.
Lisa Bonet
Image
It's starts out young- you try not be different just to survive- you try to be just like everyone else- anonymity becomes reflexive- and then one day you wake up and you've become all those other people- the others- the something you aren't. And you wonder if you can ever be what it is you really are. Or you wonder if it's too late to find out.
Douglas Coupland
Image
The work is the work. The work is not me. I like the anonymity that directors can have about their films. Even though it's my voice, I'm a storyteller.
Frank Ocean
Image
What is the purpose of a city if not to grant the greatest of gifts, anonymity?
Rabih Alameddine
Image
The passion for equality is partly a passion for anonymity: to be one thread of the many which make up a tunic one thread not distinguishable from the others. No one can then point us out, measure us against others and expose our inferiority.
Eric Hoffer

I don't like the anonymity of the banking process - people now don't have a bank manager they ever meet.
Anne Robinson
Image
Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask, and he will tell you the truth.
Oscar Wilde
Image
What difference does it make after all?--anonymity in the world of men is better than fame in heaven, for what’s heaven? what’s earth? All in the mind.
Jack Kerouac
