I’m different. Like, I recognize that, and I need to make sure that I am as prepared, that I understand, that I’ve done everything I can, knowing that people are gonna wanna say, ‘She doesn’t belong.’ I wanna prove to them I do.
But I was also a brat. I used to belong to a gang that went looking for fights with other gangs.
Rock’s gone soft, it’s gone miserable and boring, there’s not really much exciting about it. So it’s important that we cross over, because we feel like we belong more in a place where people just like music and it’s not about how heavy it is.
It’s not lost on me to have the ability to be wearing custom Dior or Gucci, with my box braids or my bantu knots. It’s another opportunity to show that Black girls belong in these places and that what I naturally bring as a Black girl belongs as well.
I belong to the Bohri community.

Fashion is an industry to make money. It plays into human psychology. We want to belong, we want to be loved. I’m not trying to demonize the fashion industry – I love the fashion industry – but style is about taking the control out of the industry’s hand and having you decide what works for you.
I won’t say that women belong in the kitchen, but they don’t belong in the dugout.
No one was happy about me entering the entertainment industry because I belong to a Syed family. But I believe no profession is a bad profession, rather it’s all about the mindset.
A great number of the women are victims to falling of the womb and weakness in the spine; but these are necessary results of their laborious existence, and do not belong either to climate or constitution.

Nature and books belong to the eyes that see them.
I first came to Brazil in the Sixties. Then I started coming back every year since touring most of the country. I grew to love it, the people, the music. I thought this is where I belong. I’ve been living in Brazil for the past 23 years. I call it my stress-free country.
I belong to the Congress. My party has always supported prohibition, though it may not have been successful in implementing prohibition in many states.
My own fear, if I have one myself, is a fear of being obsolete. This is a world that changes very fast, and one of the main human desires is to belong to, to be part of, something. It’s probably one of our greatest needs next to oxygen.
Jack doesn’t belong anymore to just a family. He belongs to the country.
I belong to a very conservative family.
I’m a member of the Studio City Driving Range. They have a nice little par-3 AstroTurf course and driving range. You know, I don’t belong to a course because I don’t golf that much, so it’s not worth it for me to join a club.
You can’t really claim too much ownership of your character. They really do belong to the writers, and in many ways, you’re just their puppet.
I still feel I belong to the theatre. There is nothing more challenging and exciting for an actor than performing before a live audience. The stage is the real testing ground for an actor.
I believe that there is some spiritual entity that’s greater than us. I do not belong to any specific organized religion. I have always believed that, and I believe it even more so now. I believe that someone was listening to me, and someone is giving me an incredibly blessed life.
