Text Quotes
I had an older brother, an older sister and a younger brother, and though I look back fondly on my childhood, I think that when you’ve got four siblings sharing the same resources and a single kids’ bathroom, it’s going to get a little tense at times. (Childhood Quotes)
Since my brother died in 1982, my parents and I had formed a shaky tripod of a family; now that I’d lost my father too, it was too easy for me to glimpse a future point where I alone was the keeper of not just my own childhood memories, but of my family lore. (Childhood Quotes)
I grew up in uptown Jamaica; I went to a rich school. I was raised by my mother and my stepfather; they made sure education came before anything. I had a good childhood, grew up spending time with my bigger brothers and sisters. My people are good people. I was exposed to a lot of different kinds of people and culture. (Childhood Quotes)
My mother’s brother was killed while clearing mines in 1945. Those are things that mark your childhood and they help explain why we are so devoted to European unity. (Childhood Quotes)
A military childhood in the 1950s was very much informed by WWII. My brothers and I often heard stories from our dad - and from other kids - about things that had happened to their dads. We constantly played war games and, nearly every Saturday, saw a different WWII movie at the post theater. (Childhood Quotes)
Somehow this change was even scarier than all the people downstairs, because Jordan could have an identical twin; there could be kids who looked like his parents’ childhood pictures. The bunk beds were impossible. (Childhood Quotes)
My childhood best friend is an anesthesiologist. It’s the least amount of human interaction for a doctor. I don’t think you can get that burned out on it. (Childhood Quotes)
In the comparatively short time between my childhood and my daughter’s, the business society has ceased urging people to produce and is now exerting its very considerable influence to get them to consume. (Childhood Quotes)
They say a happy childhood is a lousy preparation for life. Kids who spend their playground days fat, ginger or gay know the truth. The world has always been full of vicious predators. For plenty of people this carnage and savagery is business as usual. (Childhood Quotes)
I come from the deep countryside. My family was in farming. I was not really exposed to business. Coming from that environment, I just wanted in my life to go overseas - that was a childhood dream because I wanted diversity, contacts, cultural meetings with others. (Childhood Quotes)
I spent my entire childhood with my father. I started my first business at 16, and we became business partners. He’s not just a mentor and somebody that I look up to, but he’s also someone whom I took work ethic and determination and all of those qualities from. (Childhood Quotes)
Calvin and Hobbes are the only two characters from my childhood reading that I return to with any regularity, and they have grown with me, yielding newer and deeper meaning. (Childhood Quotes)
There’s an interesting contrast between born Catholics and converts. Converts are often much more rule-directed. Catholicism isn’t something that they breathed in from their childhood, so they think that if you don’t toe the line on abstract doctrine you can’t be part of the Church. (Childhood Quotes)
Families fighting childhood cancer should not have to worry about where they’re going to get the next dose of the drug they need to save their child’s life. (Childhood Quotes)
Dad always explained the car engine when he repaired it, and he had many technical books, so I was making electromagnets by age eight as well as reading my mother’s medical and nursing books. I suspect I was born with a boundless curiosity, and this was encouraged through my childhood. (Childhood Quotes)
I don’t want to give this impression that I grew up in Liverpool in a cardboard box in abject poverty, but that didn’t mean there weren’t anxieties in my childhood about money. (Childhood Quotes)
In terms of foods for me, I think I have more of the usual associations - foods from childhood that I associate with care and love, from relatives or special restaurants like the kind elderly man who dusted seasoning salt on French fries at the corner burger joint. (Childhood Quotes)
I want my kids to grow up and enjoy their childhood and be carefree. I never really got a chance to be a kid. (Childhood Quotes)
The only people who think children are carefree are the ones who’ve forgotten their own childhood. (Childhood Quotes)
Childhood should be carefree, playing in the sun; not living a nightmare in the darkness of the soul. (Childhood Quotes)
Things that I grew up with stay with me. You start a certain way, and then you spend your whole life trying to find a certain simplicity that you had. It’s less about staying in childhood than keeping a certain spirit of seeing things in a different way. (Childhood Quotes)
Using clothes to transform was a huge part of my childhood. But also, I’ve been acting forever, and wardrobe changes the way you feel, so it totally indicates the character you’re going to play. (Childhood Quotes)
The nostalgia I have been cherishing all these years is a hypertrophied sense of lost childhood, not sorrow for lost banknotes. (Childhood Quotes)
Think about all kinds of infectious diseases, like mumps or measles or chicken pox. When a virgin population encountered those pathogens, it ravaged the population, and now they’re childhood diseases, and eventually they won’t even be that. That’s our relationship with bacteria, going through time. (Childhood Quotes)
Chocolat’ was a sort of statement of my own childhood, recognizing I experienced something from the end of the colonial era and the beginning of independence as I was a child that really made me aware of things I never forgot - a sort of childhood that made me different when I was a student in France. (Childhood Quotes)
Every single minute matters, every single child matters, every single childhood matters (Childhood Quotes)
When you discover that you are going to have a child, it stirs up memories of your own childhood (Childhood Quotes)
Maybe I didn’t have the childhood people think you should have, but I still went through the ages; I was still a child. (Childhood Quotes)
The problem for me was, I lived my childhood in my 20s. You should really try to live your childhood when you’re a child, because if you do it when you’re 26, it can be dangerous. (Childhood Quotes)
...Incest is rape by extortion. Thus the child’s very childhood becomes a weapon used to control her. (Childhood Quotes)
