Egomaniac Quotes
Any man who wants to be president is either an egomaniac or crazy.
Dwight D. Eisenhower
I was concerned about doing the right thing when I was a kid. I suppose as a child, you're a massive egomaniac, and you think that everything you do is going to affect the world.
Rupert Graves
Once I was young and had so much more orientation and could talk with nervous intelligence about everything and with clarity and without as much literary preambling at this; in other words this is the story of an unself-confident man, at the same time of an egomaniac, naturally, facetious won't do−just to start at the beginning and let the truth seep out, that's what I'll do-.
Jack Kerouac
I was wrong, however, to suppose that Sellers thought the world revolved around him. He thought the cosmos did too, and history, and the fates... Like every egomaniac, he behaved as if everybody else spent their day being as interested in him as he was.
Clive James
The only thing to think over was Me, of course. And the real problem about Me was, What was I supposed to do? Was I meant to be nothing but God? I had tried the God business and found it too limited. It was a job for a simple-minded egomaniac. There had to be something else for me to do-something more meaningful, more expressive of my true self. I'm convinced of it! That is my problem, and that is the question I ask of you: What am I to do with myself?
Robert Sheckley

Dan Rather
When I was in my prime, I was an egomaniac and didn't allow my wife to buy the best sardines–the King Oscars–which bear my name. I felt there should be only one king in my house.
Oscar Levant
Face it, you have to be sort of an egomaniac to write something down and think that anyone is going to want to read it.
Cecily von Ziegesar
You cannot be an egomaniac on the horse. If you lose your temper and start beating him, either you will destroy him, or he will destroy you. As soon as you start riding horses seriously, you're being disciplined on a daily basis about how ignorant you are and what there is left for you to learn.
Jane Smiley
Steve Jobs had his critics. Some saw him as an egomaniac, and others, as a control freak.
Kevin O'Leary
People who are successful should never forget that it's 90 per cent luck. You've got to be an eejit to be an egomaniac. I had my glory years - 'Blankety Blank,' the talk show, when I was winning every award going.
Terry Wogan
In a country with more than 300 million people, it is remarkable how obsessed the media have become with just one-Donald Trump. What is even more remarkable is that, after seven years of repeated disasters, both domestically and internationally, under a glib egomaniac in the White House, so many potential voters are turning to another glib egomaniac to be his successor.
Thomas Sowell
