I'm a Giraffe

This was quote of the day on my Google home page:

"I know who I am. No one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe, and someone said I was a snake, I'd think, no, actually I'm a giraffe."
- Richard Gere

What is this supposed to mean? It's funny. And it may have some philosophical import. Any comments?
