Kid Quotes

People have these weird ideas about artists being romantic, generous people, and sometimes I feel like an asshole, a selfish kid, a brat, the lucky one, because I get to do this and it’s how I make my living Picture Quote #1

When your kid is being selfish or greedy and you want to help them not be that way, you have to find a way to articulate it and inspire them Picture Quote #1

I remember being a little kid sitting in the living room with my brother and some friends from around the neighborhood, and I would sit at the piano and as they were running around the room doing different things and being silly, acting out, I would actually play the score for it - the music that went along with it Picture Quote #1

Being a kid myself, I loved playing and I loved playing with words, and making up things and riddles and songs and not afraid of being silly in public Picture Quote #1

I don’t know... it’s just too much fun to wonder about what life would be without gravity. I just started thinking about outer space more as an adult than I probably ever did as a kid. That was also inspiring, the concept of being stuck to the earth Picture Quote #1

I was the first to advocate the Web. But I am very troubled by this thing that every kid must have a laptop computer. The kids are totally in the computer age. There’s a whole new brain operation that’s being moulded by the computer Picture Quote #1

Everybody struggles with being an oddball. It’s tough trying to fit in when you’re a kid; then you become an adult and you think, ‘I’m just going to be myself and either they accept it or they don’t.’ But you know what? I like me, and that’s the most important thing Picture Quote #1

When I was a kid, I didn’t have any girlfriends. I was a very nerdy-type dude. Believe me, being a ham does not turn girls on Picture Quote #1

I’m not writing non-fiction. I don’t feel anything about me as a kid was unique. Except that I had more interest in being alone and using my imagination Picture Quote #1

Ever since I was a little kid, I always dreamed of being a Big City kid, because I grew up in a very small town up north in Canada. I have to say I just love the city lights at night Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been a Dracula/vampire aficionado, being half-Romanian myself. Dracula has always been close to my heart - in fact, I have a first edition of Bram Stoker’s book. I read it over and over again as a young kid Picture Quote #1

There is a big difference to someone being born with vision loss, to a kid having vision loss, to a senior having macular degeneration and losing their sight Picture Quote #1

For a kid, self-esteem can be as close at hand as a sports victory or a sense of belonging in a peer group. It’s a much more complicated and elusive proposition for adults, subject to the responsibilities and vicissitudes of grown-up life Picture Quote #1

As an Anglo-Indian kid in Bolton, I was basically in a minority of one. That was a source of misery, but at the same time, one of the effects of receiving the message that you don’t belong to the club is that you watch the club with detachment. The fact that no one quite knew who I was was a major contributory factor in starting to write Picture Quote #1

Most of the time, if you ask a kid who’s their best friend, it’s usually a classmate or their neighbor or something, but for me, it was my granddad. Everybody knew him - they called him Mr. Jones Picture Quote #1

I was lucky. My family is wonderful. And it’s funny, because most of my best friends come from very large families. So it always felt as if I had lots of siblings, though in the end I had to leave them and go home. I kind of got the best of both worlds as a kid Picture Quote #1

Want to know the best thing about teaching? Seeing that moment when a kid discovers his or her gift. There’s no feeling on earth like it Picture Quote #1

I am really fortunate to have parents who supported my plan to become an actress when I was a little kid. And then there was my grandma. She was the best. She was always there and ready to drive me to all my plays and stuff Picture Quote #1

Now that I’m a grandfather myself, I realize that the best thing about having grandkids is that you get the kid for the best part of the ride - kind of like owning a car for only the first 10,000 miles. You can have your grandchildren for a couple of days and then turn them back over to the parents Picture Quote #1

The best indicator of quality day care is the kid wants to go there, and doesn’t want to go home Picture Quote #1

I grew up a really nerdy kid. I read science fiction and fantasy voraciously, for the first 16 years of my life. I read a lot of classic Cold War science fiction, which is much of the best science fiction, so I speak the language well, which is a commodity that’s not easy to come by in Hollywood Picture Quote #1

One of the things that I first remember wanting to be was a ‘geolisty’ - that was the best I could say when I was a kid. That was right after I stopped wanting to be a fireman or a truck driver. Because my dad is a paleontologist who worked with the Smithsonian, I got to see the bones up close and the exhibits behind the scenes there Picture Quote #1

Even as a kid, I was more enchanted watching Bette Davis than Errol Flynn Picture Quote #1
