Text Quotes
I realize that when I moved out of my father’s house I shocked and frightened him because I needed a room of my own, a space of my own to reinvent myself  (My Father Quotes) We didn’t have television in those days, and many people didn’t even have radios. My mother would read aloud to my father and me in the evening  (My Father Quotes) My parents always asked me what I thought, listened to my opinions, articulated their diagnoses of our challenges at home and abroad, and shared their ideas for how to build a more equal and prosperous country. I always felt part of their call to serve and part of my father’s journey  (My Father Quotes) I always sang when I was little and my father, who was a great influence on me, also had a wonderful voice. He and my mother really encouraged me to sing and play the piano. They were always very supportive  (My Father Quotes) Yes, my mother was a singer, and my father played piano and keyboards. They were in a band together, though they also had regular jobs because they had kids and stuff like that  (My Father Quotes) My father being in the movie business, I thought being an actor would be great. But when I started singing to people in coffeehouses, you know, singing folk music and then, later, singing songs that I started to write myself, I felt more than an affinity for it  (My Father Quotes) My father was a very unhappy person, very sarcastic, and my mother was very nervous and worried about what people thought. They weren’t monsters, but it wasn’t a good childhood  (My Father Quotes) What made me want to go into doing comics was I was working as a laborer with my father, a gardener  (My Father Quotes) I’m aware that most people who meet me for the first time think of me in a certain way because of who my father is. That just comes with the territory. But that’s been that way ever since I was a little kid as long as I can remember. I grew up that way  (My Father Quotes) My father was a police officer before he retired. One of my brothers is also a police officer, and I think they kind of expected I would do something along those lines, like become a fireman or something  (My Father Quotes) I know the pressures of being the daughter of a great actress. But it’s inspiring. You learn so much that other people don’t get to learn until later on. My father being a director, I learnt a real work ethic  (My Father Quotes) My father described me as the oldest baby he’d ever seen. I apparently was very serious and reflective  (My Father Quotes) If my father’s business hadn’t gone broke, I’d be exporting nuts, bolts and sugar machinery right now. What an awful thought!  (My Father Quotes) My father worked hard, but we were still very poor; and I didn’t want anybody arguing about money, so I became the entertainer, the one who wanted everyone to be happy. I didn’t want there to be any problems  (My Father Quotes) And I think that’s why I was going to be a musician. I was very rebellious. And I didn’t want to be an actor. My father used to say to me you should be an actor if you want to be in the arts  (My Father Quotes) When I was about 10 I ran away to see my father. He couldn’t have cared less. He just took me back as soon as he could  (My Father Quotes) My parents would always have us, as many times as we could, sit together for dinner and talk about what was happening in our lives, and so we created a great recipe where I could be completely honest with my mother and to an extent my father, being an attorney  (My Father Quotes) I wish I looked more like my mother, but I think I look like my father. I wish I had one of those naturally beautiful faces. Or a more quirky face. I’m right down the middle: not interesting enough, not pretty enough  (My Father Quotes) I grew up in a very musical family, my father was a musician and a big band leader and made records  (My Father Quotes) My father is a chemist, my mother was a homemaker. My parents instilled in us the feeling that learning was the most exciting thing that could happen to you, and it never ends  (My Father Quotes) I want to work with a director who becomes my brother, my father, for two months. You give yourself over to that person  (My Father Quotes) My father knew the charming side of my mother, and my mother thought that he was attentive and pleasant and was an architect, which was a respectable profession, but I don’t think that they actually got to know one another deeply  (My Father Quotes) My father suffered much and toiled painfully all his life, for he had no resources other than the proceeds of his trade from which to support himself and his wife and family  (My Father Quotes) I’ve been around golf my whole life. My father did it all the time, and I resented him for it. But a couple years ago I picked up a golf club and I understood the physics of it. If anyone knows anything about golf, it’s that once you hit a few shots, you’ll become addicted  (My Father Quotes) My parents split up when I was about 2. I realize more and more how much I’m like my father.

You are seeing my dream come true  (My Father Quotes) I wasn’t really aware that my father was working for quite a while. I thought it was my mother who had all the money!  (My Father Quotes)
