Kid Quotes

When I was a kid, there was unhappiness in my family - was dealt with partly by escaping to television. And from a very early age, for whatever reason, I became scornful and resistant to and angry about that. And some other time in my life, I realized that there’s a lot I loved in television Picture Quote #1

For ‘The Haunting Hour,’ I thought it would be a lot of fun. It was great to play this cool kid role. My episode is called ‘The Intruders’ and my character is this mean, angry teenager because her younger brother was just born and he gets all of the attention. She’s always playing tricks on her family, and there are some cool twists Picture Quote #1

It’s maybe hard to believe, but as a kid I really had a lot of self-doubts. My father was very ill - he was an alcoholic - so there were a lot of things that built up for me. And because I was going to a Catholic school in a small German town, a lot of it was suppressed. I was angry and didn’t know how to get it out Picture Quote #1

My mom is one of those really angry moms who gets mad at absolutely everything. Once when I was a little kid, I accidentally knocked a Flintstones glass off the kitchen table. She said, ‘Well, dammit, we can’t have nice things.’ Picture Quote #1

I was a kid who was really unhappy with being bussed. I was one of the angry people in the halls Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I loved the whimsical Superman and Batman stuff, and as a teenager, Marvel was more angsty, and that appealed to me. Marvel dealt with more stuff I could relate to as a teenager Picture Quote #1

I feel it in my bones that if I had a kid, I would not either continue to write or have written the book I have done. So it’s just me and the dog. I’ve always gotten along better with animals than I have with children, anyway Picture Quote #1

I was one of several songwriters I think interviewed [for Moana]. I’m a huge fan of Disney animated movies, and I’ve always wanted to write an animated score since I was a little kid Picture Quote #1

I do really like doing animated movies. I like watching animated movies, and I always have. That’s something I didn’t let go of, from when I was a kid. It’s always exciting for me to get to do that. Animated movies are so rarely bad Picture Quote #1

I also love being able to do something that kids and families can enjoy because I have two children of my own and I want them to grow up watching all the fabulous animated movies and cartoons that I loved to watch as a kid Picture Quote #1

My brother never got an opportunity to throw a pitch, and I didn’t want the same thing to happen to another young kid Picture Quote #1

I had a very close relationship with another kid when I was growing up. I was his imaginary friend Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, I loved ‘The Curse of Frankenstein,’ ‘The Creeping Unknown,’ ‘X: The Unknown.’ I love ‘Forbidden Planet,’ ‘The Thing from Another World.’ They were science fiction/horror movies, generally Picture Quote #1

If I were involved with the NBA, I wouldn’t want a 19-year-old or a 20-year-old kid to bring into all the travel and all the problems that exist in the NBA. I would want a much more mature kid. I would want a kid that maybe I’ve been watching on another team, and now he’s 21, 22 years old instead of 18 or 19, and I might trade for that kid Picture Quote #1

I find it weird the way people get so excited about celebrity. If my friends are on the phone, their friends will say: ‘Is that kid from ‘Love Actually’ there?’ And the phone gets passed round and I have to speak to this stranger asking: ‘Are you famous?’ I don’t know how to answer Picture Quote #1

The source of so much of my anxiety in life and the tensions in my relationship is my anxiety about my kid. It’s all very abstract and unfounded and ungrounded Picture Quote #1

I was not a silly kid or outgoing. In fact, I suffered from quite a bit of anxiety. I used to have panic attacks when I was a teenager, really incapacitating moments, because I had some phobias Picture Quote #1

I love the anxiety, the pressure of the loud room full of yapping kids. But I’m a kid myself Picture Quote #1

It’s funny when you’re a kid how you can acclimate to almost anything Picture Quote #1

Life is all about the friendship and the love and the music. It sounds silly, but it is. I want to have that experience as much as I can as an adult, not as a kid doing something that people are telling her she has to do. If anyone gets in my way, I’m going to get them out of my way Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, there was no collaboration; it’s you with a camera bossing your friends around. But as an adult, filmmaking is all about appreciating the talents of the people you surround yourself with and knowing you could never have made any of these films by yourself Picture Quote #1

If someone asks me a question, that says they appreciate what I do and that’s nice. And I know what it was like when I was a kid to want to interact with a top player Picture Quote #1

I was actually picked on as a kid. I guess in high school it started to change for me. I guess being picked on made a lasting impression on me so I never - whenever somebody calls me handsome or anything like that, I never take it for granted. I appreciate it every time I hear it, so it’s never something that gets old Picture Quote #1

I always appreciated that connection between a parent and a kid because I yearned for it so much. Growing up, I wanted a father, and because I’ve had this idea of what a father should be, it’s exciting to finally have the opportunity to try and be that guy, to see if I can actually do it Picture Quote #1

I appreciate my journey, but I don’t want that for my kid. Not any of it. It has nothing to do with whether I liked my childhood. I really did. But as a parent, that isn’t the childhood that I’d provide Picture Quote #1

As a kid, I was listening to Aretha Franklin, Etta James and hip-hop as well as music my parents were listening to, like Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen Picture Quote #1

I often compare myself as a kid to my own grandchildren, who are around 11 and 14 now. That’s the age kids usually read my book. And I remember myself; we’d gone through a world war. My father was an army officer so I was aware of what was going on. But I wasn’t bombarded with images of catastrophe like many kids are today Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, toe dancing and toe shoes had a meaning in our culture as a serious kind of art Picture Quote #1

We believed that there’s no such thing as good art or bad art. Art is art. If it’s bad, it’s something else. It was a much, much harder line in the 50s and 60s than it is now, because the idea of art education didn’t exist - they didn’t have a fine arts program when I was a kid Picture Quote #1

Music is one of the noblest callings I can think of. It’s the highest of all the art forms to me. For example, if my kid said to me, ‘I want to give it all up,’ whatever it is that they’re doing, ‘and I want to take my saxophone and go out,’ I would say, ‘May God go with you. This is a great and noble thing that you’re doing.’ Picture Quote #1
