Summary

This quote suggests that the speaker, possibly a filmmaker or actor, avoids quoting their own movies because they believe it would make them come across as egotistical or obnoxious. Refraining from quoting themselves demonstrates modesty and humility, as they prefer not to draw attention to their own work in casual conversation. It reflects a desire to maintain a genuine and down-to-earth persona, rather than projecting an inflated sense of self-importance.
