About Family Quotes

My goals have changed throughout my life. At one time it was winning awards, selling out concert dates, selling more albums than anyone else. Now, my goals are to see my grandchildren grown, live a long and healthy life with my family and friends and travel the world Picture Quote #1

I would hate to think I’m promoting sadness as an aesthetic. But I grew up in not just a family but a town and a culture where sadness is something you’re taught to feel shame about. You end up chronically desiring what can be a very sentimental idea of love and connection. A lot of my work has been about trying to make a space for sadness Picture Quote #1

My family lived off the land and summer evening meals featured baked stuffed tomatoes, potato salad, corn on the cob, fresh shelled peas and homemade ice cream with strawberries from our garden. With no air conditioning in those days, the cool porch was the center of our universe after the scorching days Picture Quote #1

I’m lucky to attribute my success to the foundation my family gave me. I’ve always felt grounded in them Picture Quote #1

I’ve had fun doing romantic comedies, but I just can’t anymore. There’s nothing fulfilling creatively, there’s nowhere to grow, nothing to learn from it or for yourself. I’d rather just be home with my family or write music until that special project comes my way Picture Quote #1

I delight in my family obligations, but they leave little time for breaks let alone quick trips across the country Picture Quote #1

I try to be really hippie about things. I’m uptight in all the ways that are really important, but the things my husband and family can benefit from my uptightness, I’m completely lacking Picture Quote #1

As for my personal life, I’d love to start a family of my own. I think I’d make a great dad, and I think shortly I would make a great husband Picture Quote #1

I was the youngest in my family. When the other kids went to school, my mother would make them breakfast and then she would go back to bed for an hour, so I was sort of babysat by television Picture Quote #1

I work in areas related to child protection and family safety, women’s empowerment, the creation of opportunities for youth, and culture and tourism. Daunting? Yes. Impossible? No. In fact, such challenges energize me Picture Quote #1

I’m pretty good at surprising friends and family with gifts. I tend to go towards the more sentimental side of giving Picture Quote #1

My family background has always been very supportive. They’re going to be there for me no matter what Picture Quote #1

My culture comes from everywhere. I’m sick of this notion of nationality, that if you’re brought up in the same city or same country you’re the same. Even three kids brought up in the same family with the same genes, they are not the same. Just consider a human a human Picture Quote #1

Action films are great, but an action film that has characters that are compelling and a story that people can care about is something even better. We love to see action heroes that are vulnerable, that are sensitive, that are family people, that are accessible Picture Quote #1

It’s very important to prioritize. I know, for me, my family comes first. That makes every decision very easy Picture Quote #1

I’ve been through a lot of things in my personal and family life. That turned me into a fighter. I always strive to be the best I possibly can Picture Quote #1

I don’t just want to focus on soccer, soccer, soccer. You’re going to look back 20 years from now and of course you’re going to remember the games. But I’m going to remember seeing my family in the stands Picture Quote #1

I need a life outside of soccer. So I very much welcome, you know, new love interests and dating and friends and family Picture Quote #1

I want the traditional family upheld, but I don’t want it upheld to the detriment of other people Picture Quote #1

I want to spend as much time as I can with my family, yet I’m aware of having to bring home the bacon Picture Quote #1

I can see how you could get dragged into the bad stuff, but I’ve got good friends around me, good family. I think I’ve got my head screwed on Picture Quote #1

I didn’t have any expectations of what my family life would end up being like. But I’ve been very blessed in my life to have a wife who loves me and supports me and is able to be in my band and travel with me Picture Quote #1

It’s the uncertainty, the challenge and the willingness to put it all on the line that draws a lot of people to climb mountains. That can also apply to a lot of other challenges in life, whether it’s running for office, starting a family, going to grad school or taking all of your cash and assets and starting a business Picture Quote #1

I enjoy going out by myself... always have, always will. I don’t have security guards, and, for the most part, I enjoy meeting new people. I see myself as a regular guy who likes playing video games with his nieces and nephews and poker with his family. I don’t have an art collection or take exotic vacations. I enjoy being at home Picture Quote #1

During the periods in my marriage when I chose to stay home with my kids rather than work as an attorney, it caused me no end of anxiety. Despite the fact that I knew I was contributing to our family by caring for our children, I still felt that my worth was less because I wasn’t earning Picture Quote #1

The breakdown of the black community, in order to maintain slavery, began with the breakdown of the black family. Men and women were not legally allowed to get married because you couldn’t have that kind of love. It might get in the way of the economics of slavery. Your children could be taken from you and literally sold down the river Picture Quote #1

There were never any doctors in my family. But my grandparents and my mother had a strong social conscience that was formative Picture Quote #1

We all have a personal pool of quicksand inside us where we begin to sink and need friends and family to find us and remind us of all the good that has been and will be Picture Quote #1

The rooms of his apartment were full with the dog home again, convalescing. He was satisfied to know, even when she was out of sight, that somewhere in the apartment she was sleeping or eating or sitting watchfully. It was family, he guessed, more or less. Did most people want a house of living things at night, to know that in the dark around them other warm bodies slept? Such a house could even be the whole world Picture Quote #1

If you’re trying to be miserable, it’s important you don’t have any goals. No school goals, personal goals, family goals. Your only objective each day should be to inhale and exhale for sixteen hours before you go to bed again. Don’t read anything informative, don’t listen to anything useful, don’t do anything productive. If you start achieving goals, you might start to feel a sense of excitement, then you might want to set another goal, and then your miserable mornings are through. To maintain your misery, the idea of crossing off your goals should never cross your mind Picture Quote #1
