Grew Quotes

I grew up as a very sarcastic person. I was always the class clown, and to date girls, I had to be really funny. I was really skinny growing up. I was so thin, I had to run around in the shower to get wet. That kind of thin. So I always had to rely on humor and sarcasm Picture Quote #1

I grew up in an average middle-class family. I don’t think I even knew any friends who were fostered or adopted Picture Quote #1

When I was young, I grew up in a family of working-class people. Not just my parents, but my extended family, as well Picture Quote #1

Today, families like the one I grew up in still believe in that American dream. But as President Obama says, it’s a make-or-break moment for the middle class. Mitt Romney’s plans would make things worse Picture Quote #1

I’m the classic example of alienation: I grew up in a middle-class household without art or books. I was going to be a chemical engineer until I went to the theatre for the first time at 16 and was blown away by it Picture Quote #1

Advertisements

I grew up Catholic. We went to confession on Saturday, stood in the shortest line, since it led to the priest who gave the easiest penance - usually a few Our Fathers and Hail Marys. We confessed in private, prayed our penance and our souls were clean Picture Quote #1

My mom grew up with horses, and when I turned 14, 15, she’s like, ‘Do you want to take a riding lesson?’ I thought, ‘Oh, gross, dirty.’ She was like, ‘Okay.’ And then I did, and now I’m the one cleaning those damn stalls out. You can’t get me away from the barn now. It shocks even me Picture Quote #1

Literary modernism kind of grew out of a sense that, Oh my god! I’m telling a story! Oh, that can’t be the case, because I’m a clever person. I’m a literary person! What am I going to do to distinguish myself? I know! I’ll write Ulysses Picture Quote #1

I love movies. I adore movies. I grew up on Steve McQueen and Clint Eastwood and Warren Beatty. The list goes on. Spencer Tracy. I wanted to be in movies Picture Quote #1

I’m Egyptian and Muslim, but I grew up in the West, far from my Arab roots. I began ‘Sex and the Citadel’ to help outsiders - like myself - to better comprehend this pivotal part of the world, up-close and personal Picture Quote #1

My mother’s people are Old Order Mennonite - horse and buggy Mennonite, very close cousins to the Amish. I grew up in Lancaster County and lived near Amish farm land Picture Quote #1

I grew up with my cousins, who were as close as brothers, and frankly, I didn’t like what girls were expected to do. I liked horseback riding, playing football, going to rodeos. I wanted to be in jeans all the time, and I couldn’t figure out why I was supposed to conform to a certain standard, so I didn’t Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a family where many of our close friends were gay couples. As well as that, every man goes through a period of thinking they’re attracted to another guy Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a very small, close-knit, Southern Baptist family, where everything was off-limits. So I couldn’t wait to get to college and have some fun. And I did for the first two years.

After I released ‘Jesus, Take the Wheel,’ people started saying, Oh, it’s kind of risky. You’re coming out with a religious song. And I was thinking, Really? I grew up in Oklahoma; I always had a close relationship with God. I never thought it was risky in the least. If anything, I thought it was the safest thing I could do Picture Quote #1

I grew up where, when a door closed, a window didn’t open. The only thing I had was cracks. I’d do everything to get through those cracks - scratch, claw, bite, push, bleed. Now the opportunity is here. The door is wide open, and it’s as big as a garage Picture Quote #1

I grew up on the back of a motorcycle - my dad didn’t have a car until I was a teenager. And then my closest friend from grade school was a guy Picture Quote #1

I see some of the clothes from the 90s is back in fashion. That really freaks me out because that’s when I grew up Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a small town in Washington State, so I wasn’t really aware of costume design as a career growing up, but I loved clothes. I remember I saved all my money, and the first thing that I bought was a white blazer, which was to the horror to my parents. But I have always had a strange connection with clothing Picture Quote #1

My mom grew up in the Philippines, and she would use coconut oil. I put that in my hair always - literally, natural coconut oil that you use for cooking. I use that for my cuticles and dry spots on my skin too Picture Quote #1

I have, like, two best friends, one that I grew up with who’s not an actor, and one that is an actor that lives near me in Wales, and they’re my friends. I don’t have any other friends, really, in the industry. I have acquaintances and people that I will go out for coffee with Picture Quote #1

I fell in love with my morning cup of coffee, and my second one at 11 A.M., and so on and so forth Picture Quote #1
