Grew Quotes

I grew up in a Mauritian bubble in France... I had the feeling of not belonging, but still living with French culture Picture Quote #1

I grew up just outside Hay-on-Wye, on the borders of Wales, on a farm. It was an amazing childhood, but I got a bit stir crazy when I hit my teens. There was the feeling of having to get out, you know, but it was definitely idyllic Picture Quote #1

I really grew up more of a people pleaser and I just wanted to make people happy, and maybe didn’t always say exactly how I was feeling Picture Quote #1

I grew up in an all-female family - two sisters and a mostly single mother - and we often bonded, in part, by disparaging men and feeling superior to them Picture Quote #1

I grew up playing field hockey and lacrosse - prep school sport - and I was terrible at them Picture Quote #1

I’ve always had different diet kicks. I grew up in a big Italian family, kind of grew up a chubby kid, then went vegan in fifth grade. I did that for three years, then I went raw in high school. It’s always been extreme, but in the last few years I’ve gotten into balance. I don’t restrict myself like I used to Picture Quote #1

I grew up always knowing what I wanted to do, and I’m starting to see how rare that is. All of my friends are just figuring it out. It’s a process of elimination until you find what you love Picture Quote #1

I was saying as a joke the other day that I love film editing, I know how to cut a picture, I think I know how to shoot it, but I don’t know how to light it. And I realize it’s because I didn’t grow up with light. I grew up in tenements Picture Quote #1

Every demo I do has a mandolin or resonator on it - some element of the bluegrass or classic country world that I grew up listening to and that first drew me in.

I grew up in Los Angeles. I still remember when I was a junior in high school studying for the SATs. I had my job - I was actually a production assistant on a film - but on weekends, I would finish my prep tests on the beach Picture Quote #1

The first time I had to hold a baby, I was really nervous, but I soon grew in confidence Picture Quote #1

We were a very politically active family. My father was one of the first lawyers in South Africa to have a black partner, so I grew up very aware of the struggle going on. Coming from that background, it really gave me chills to have my music be a part of the election of the first black American president Picture Quote #1

If you had asked me back in grade school what I wanted to be when I grew up, I would have said my first choice was an actor, but if I couldn’t be that, I’d want to be a superhero Picture Quote #1

Woman on the Plaza,’ with its distinct horizon, snow-like surfaces, wintry wall, stunning sunlight, sharp shadows, and hurrying figure, would become the most biographical of my photographs - an abstract image of the landscape and life of northern Ohio where I grew up and first practiced photography Picture Quote #1

When I first saw California, it was extraordinary. Because I came from old, black, dark England, still recovering from World War II. I grew up with bomb sites everywhere Picture Quote #1

I was a kid that grew up in the South and was always outdoors fishing and hunting and, you know, swimming in the pool during the summer Picture Quote #1

I grew up in West Palm Beach, Florida. My dad took me hunting, trapping and fishing when I was a kid Picture Quote #1

I want to plug back into the hip-hop audience. Whether it be fans who grew up watching ‘Yo!’, or people who have become familiar with the culture via the Internet Picture Quote #1

As I grew up, I played in sandals. I played in flip-flops all the time back in the day. That’s why I didn’t really care about spraining my ankles. When I first started in the NBA, I loved low-cuts. I can play (in them), because I used to grow up playing in flip-flops all the time Picture Quote #1

Dinosaurs grew feathers for heat regulation, but the ones that started flying started becoming birds Picture Quote #1
