1
Poppy Z. Brite
In high school I was the dog, always, and I never have felt comfortable or right in my body, and part of my whole exhibitionist thing has probably been a way of testing to see whether or not I really was this repulsive creature that I felt like for so long.
2
Umberto Eco
I think every professor and writer is in some way an exhibitionist because his or her normal activity is a theatrical one. When you give a lesson the situation is the same as writing a book. You have to capture the attention, the complicity of your audience.
3
Tamsin Egerton
I don't think any actors love taking their clothes off on film, unless you're an exhibitionist, which I'm certainly not.
4
Alison Goldfrapp
I don't think that just because you go on stage you are an exhibitionist.
5
Leslie Howard
The truth is that to enjoy acting one must be an exhibitionist at heart, one must revel in those exposures of the emotions which would be agonizing to a shy or reserved person. All the great actors have been and are exhibitionists.
6
Tim McGraw
I'm actually not an exhibitionist at all. When you get onstage and you get under the lights playing music, I feel more hidden and more alone than anywhere else. You hide behind your music and let your emotions come out through the music.
7
Megyn Price
I'm not an exhibitionist in any way, shape or form. I don't even like having my picture taken!
8
Kelly Reilly
I'm not a show-off; I'm not an exhibitionist.
9
Dave Van Ronk
I'm an exhibitionist, I was an exhibitionist as a kid.
10
Richard Thompson
When you stand up acoustic in front of an audience, you really are a man without any clothes on. And that can be fun - it depends how much of an exhibitionist you are, I suppose. I quite enjoy it.
