Household Quotes

I used to have a little silent prayer: ‘Dear God, let my ability to get work be the same as my celebrity.’ That would be a hard burden: to be a household name and not be able to get work Picture Quote #1

I wanted to be heard myself, which is hard in a household of people who were very showy. It forced me to find myself and define a personality and a way of being different, and that’s a thing that’s going to help me to survive in a world of many people playing the guitar Picture Quote #1

The dirty little secret is that I grew up in a household where there were no carbohydrates allowed, ever. No cookies, no bread, no potatoes, no rice. My mother was very extreme in terms of what she served. Since I left home more than 40 years ago, I’ve been making it right for myself Picture Quote #1

Edith Vonnegut behaved like a guest in her children’s lives. To her way of thinking, parenting came under the general heading of household tasks, which, as a wealthy woman, she could pay others to do Picture Quote #1

Drama school introduced me to a world I had no idea about. I wasn’t brought up in a literary household at all Picture Quote #1

I don’t want to give the impression that I hold daily conversations with my household appliances, although my toaster is as old as Drew Barrymore and almost as talented Picture Quote #1

No matter our age, everyone in our household knows that cooking and eating together is where the fun is Picture Quote #1

The only exercise I got as a kid was fork to mouth. Food was equated with love in my household. I thought you left the table when the zipper was down and you’d explode if you took another bite. I’d eat my plate and then everyone else’s leftovers Picture Quote #1

The major economic policy challenges facing the nation today - pick your favorites among the usual suspects of low public and household savings, concerns about educational quality and achievement, high and rising income inequality, the large imbalances between our social insurance commitments and resources - are not about monetary policy Picture Quote #1

Since the end of the 1970s, something has gone profoundly wrong in America. Inequality has soared. Educational progress slowed. Incarceration rates quintupled. Family breakdown accelerated. Median household income stagnated Picture Quote #1

I think women - relative to men - tend to feel that they have to do the household chores on top of everything else. This becomes even worse once you have kids. It’s enough to have a full time job; a full time job plus a family is even more Picture Quote #1

If I’m coming in at 4:00 in the morning and my kids have been in bed since 8:00, 9:00, that’s not setting a good example. The responsibility that I have kids inside my household has made me realize now that I have to be an example Picture Quote #1

I don’t mind expressing my opinions and speaking out against injustice. I would be doing this even if I wasn’t a writer. I grew up in a household that believed in social justice.

I grew up in a household without a TV. We lived next door to a library for a while, and at one point, I checked out all the books in the fairy tale section. I remember the librarian’s quiet smile as I’d bring back one stack and exchange it for another Picture Quote #1

A proper family diary with everyone’s events and parties in it really helps organise the household Picture Quote #1

I cohabited for 20 years with my longtime husband and father of my two now-teen daughters in a stable family household Picture Quote #1

Our household is built on love and respect. And we don’t really let negative vibes stay too long. It’s worked out. I got a great family, great kids Picture Quote #1

Lovingly crafted and super-creative cupcakes are not exactly on tap in my household after a full day at work, and I do not blame my mother for a second that they were not on tap in hers, either Picture Quote #1

In an Italian household, there were two figures for me growing up - you had the Pope and you had Frank Sinatra, and, of course, Tony Bennett. And not necessarily in that order Picture Quote #1

Still, I wonder if more women artists, musicians and writers aren’t household names because we don’t have enough faith in our own pursuits to give ourselves the time we desperately need to be transformed by a creative vision. Maybe that glass ceiling isn’t really made of glass at all, but of sticky little fingers, dishes piled in the sink, and mortgages that demand two incomes Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a loving household that taught me how to respect others and love God Picture Quote #1

There’s nothing on it worthwhile, and we’re not going to watch it in this household, and I don’t want it in your intellectual diet Picture Quote #1
