Family Not Close Quotes

In the States, you can buy Chinese food. In Beijing you can buy hamburger. It’s very close. Now I feel the world become a big family, like a really big family. You have many neighbors. Not like before, two countries are far away Picture Quote #1

I’m very close to my family. Not like these big stars - not mentioning any names - who lose the plot and don’t know who they are Picture Quote #1

My rule is, whatever you were calling me four years ago is what you should be calling me now, because I don’t like it when my family or close friends call me Nicki Minaj. To me I’m not Nicki Minaj when I’m with them Picture Quote #1

I’d never put all my chips anywhere, because I don’t want to close any doors, but I was raised in a very blue-collar family. I was raised by parents who said, ‘If you don’t go to work every day, you’re not contributing’, so that’s my mentality. I have to work every day; I have to bring home a paycheck Picture Quote #1

I did not grow up a cinefile. No one in my family was in the film business or even anything close to it Picture Quote #1

Being someone who had had a very difficult childhood, a very difficult adolescence - it had to do with not quite poverty, but close. It had to do with being brought up in a family where no one spoke English, no one could read or write English. It had to do with death and disease and lots of other things. I was a little prone to depression Picture Quote #1

Looking at me from the outside, it is not very obvious, I know half my family is black and I feel close to their culture and their color Picture Quote #1

I loathe rock stars. I am a music nerd, a fan, a follower... just like any fan of music might be. And although I have blood-relatives, a lot of times I feel closer to my audience than my true family, because at least my fans get what I’m doing, to a certain extent, whereas my family does not Picture Quote #1

Someone that is not close with their family is an immediate deal breaker for me Picture Quote #1

If you’re not comfortable with public speaking - and nobody starts out comfortable; you have to learn how to be comfortable - practice. I cannot overstate the importance of practicing. Get some close friends or family members to help evaluate you, or somebody at work that you trust Picture Quote #1

I don’t like talking unnecessarily, and my communication skills are zilch. I just can’t converse with people. Maybe it’s because of my stuttering or stammering, but I’m not confident of talking with people. I only talk to very close friends and family Picture Quote #1

Growing up in the days when you still had to punch buttons to make a telephone call, I could recall the numbers of all my close friends and family. Today, I’m not sure if I know more than four phone numbers by heart. And that’s probably more than most Picture Quote #1

When you look at a family, if you have a family that never interacts with each other, never has strong conversation with each other, never has disagreements, nine times out of ten you have a very cold family and they’re not going to be, at the end, they’re not going to be close Picture Quote #1

Family businesses that have been around for generations are suddenly closing their doors, and while I’m not comparing my situation or my family’s situations to theirs, the fact that my father’s business, which has been around for 30 years, might not be around, it gives me a perspective that makes me want to fight even harder for a lot of people Picture Quote #1
