Grew Quotes

I grew up in the United Methodist Church, and church was always a very big part of my growing up Picture Quote #1

I’m just a tiny person from a humdrum neighbourhood, so I grew up worshipping ‘Bond’ pictures and dreaming of a life bigger than my own Picture Quote #1

My mother and my grandmother are pioneers of Mexican cuisine in this country, so I grew up in the kitchen. My mom, Zarela Martinez, was by far my biggest influence and inspiration - and toughest critic Picture Quote #1

I’m a country boy. I grew up kicking around the woods, riding dirt bikes, playing football, climbing rocks and all that good stuff, so that’s always been fun Picture Quote #1

First off, I love Woody Allen. His early movies, like ‘Hannah and Her Sisters,’ are incredible. I also love anything by Billy Wilder, Ron Howard and John Hughes.

He was withdrawing. I think it was getting harder for him to accept his fate. Like a bird in a cage, he grew silent Picture Quote #1

I’m a happy guy. I like to joke around. I’m irreverent. I love my family; I love my son. I was very happy with and proud of the birth of my son. I grew up a lot after he was born. I’m just an easy and happy guy Picture Quote #1

I just celebrated my fourth birthday on the set, my fourth birthday cake. So it’s been awhile and, you know, I grew up with these guys Picture Quote #1

For my birthday this year, my girlfriends - who knew I’d just inherited my dad’s turntable - gave me a carton of albums like ‘Blue Kentucky Girl,’ by Emmylou Harris, and ‘Off the Wall,’ by Michael Jackson. It’s all stuff we grew up with. I mean, you can’t have a music collection without Prince’s ‘Purple Rain’ - it just can’t be done! Picture Quote #1

I always tell people that the music industry may be frustrating sometimes, but the singing never gets old. It’s something I grew up doing, and I take the bitter with the sweet Picture Quote #1

Black people in America have to, for their own protection, develop a defense mechanism, and I just grew terribly tired of it Picture Quote #1

Michael Jackson was a poor black boy who grew up to be a rich white woman Picture Quote #1

When Michael Jackson, a poor black boy who grew up to be a rich, white woman, married Elvis Presley’s daughter the Scientologist. Makes you proud to be an American, dudn’t it? Picture Quote #1

As I grew up, I began to discover a little bit about the situation of black people in America and experienced an immediate empathy with the victims of such senseless discrimination. Because although the Turks were never slaves, they were regarded as enemies within Europe because of their Muslim beliefs Picture Quote #1

We grew up in a very strange world, because my mother was up against it all when she had three black children Picture Quote #1

I would say I’m black because my parents said I’m black. I’m black because my mother’s black. I’m black because I grew up in a family of all black people.

And my parents, as part of their protective mechanisms that they were going to give to us, made it very clear what we were Picture Quote #1

The Black Panther Party was not a gang. They grew out of a young black intelligentsia on college campuses Picture Quote #1

People hear the soul, black influence in my voice. I grew up listening to CKLW and all the black stations like WLBS Picture Quote #1

Quite frankly, I’ve always listened to the black side of the radio dial. Where I grew up, there was a lot of it and there was a lot of live music around Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a neighborhood with blacks and Puerto Ricans and Italians, the whole gamut, so conveying unity has always meant a lot to me Picture Quote #1

I grew up in Los Angeles when the racial tensions between blacks and Mexicans were very high. Gang violence was very prevalent Picture Quote #1

Blade Runner is one of my favorite films. But, so many thing influenced me that aren’t science fiction because they were just good drama. I grew up watching a lot of French cinema.

And he gave it for his opinion, that whoever could make two ears of corn, or two blades of grass, to grow upon a spot of ground where only one grew before, would deserve better of mankind, and do more essential service to his country, than the whole race of politicians put together Picture Quote #1

The virtue of making two blades of grass grow where only one grew before does not begin to be superhuman Picture Quote #1

The household I grew up in... was rather like an Ovaltine advert. There was a huge fire, a kettle on the fire, the oven with the bread being baked every day, and there was the radio; it was very magical to hear all these wonderful programmes Picture Quote #1

Down where I grew up, able-bodied people do that which we believe God created them to do. Work is a blessing; it’s not a curse Picture Quote #1

I have realized over time that I missed the mark with HyperCard. I grew up in a box-centric culture at Apple.

My blind spot at Apple prevented me from making HyperCard the first Web browser Picture Quote #1

I grew up in the middle of a block where there was an Irish grocery store on one corner, an Italian bar on another corner and the Nazi Party was on the third corner Picture Quote #1
