Yeah, his favorite tactic...  "Say nothing and do it profoundly".

Jealous much?  That used to be called the "Evil Eye".  But Bear with me ...

I am what I am ... (sounds like a demigod, doesn't it?).
Sounds like an ancient Egyptian god called Nuk Pu Nuk.

You are what you are.  But I am mature enough to not be triggered by it.

Not to get off the subect entirely, but have you ever wondered if human advancement can be measured by complex syllables naming their deities?  Surely not someting I've studied, but I wonder sometimes.  Although I would specify Aryan names.

That works in ancient Semitic languages, Sumerian, and Chinese.  They are agglutinative (words built by linear addition to front or end).  So it isn't just for deity names.

Consider An (Sumerian) who gets replaced by Marduk (Semitic).  Once we get to the NT, it is very advanced, Beelzebub. Four syllables.  In Chinese, they started with one syllable nouns, that quickly evolve into two syllable nouns.  Aka two characters (each character is one syllable).  Today, a great many Chinese words are four characters long.  On that basis, the Welsh are the most advanced society ...
