Tony Danza Quotes

We are cutting things kids like-music, art, and gym classes; stuff that kept me in school. This country can’t survive without you kids. It’s all about you kids Picture Quote #1

This culture is sort of antithetical in everything it says to the kids. I don’t want to pick on ‘Jersey Shore,’ but it’s pretty clear. I would tell the kids good behavior and hard work will pay off, and then they go home and watch TV and go, ‘Oh, that’s not true.’ Picture Quote #1

The great thing about getting married young like I did and having a child so young is that he gets to know all the relatives. He knew his great-grandmother, and we sat down together and tied down the stories of our uncles and aunts. They were quite the characters, and we tied them to about 50 recipes. It’s like a memoir-cookbook Picture Quote #1

I always wanted to be a teacher. I went to school to be a teacher. And I’ve always, you know, had this sort of romantic idea about it. But I’m worried about - I’m worried about education Picture Quote #1

What happened is, when I was doing ‘Taxi,’ the last year, we did this thing where we had on top hats and tails, and we pretended to tap-dance. And I said to myself, ‘You know, I always wanted to know how to do this.’ So I got myself a teacher, and I started studying, and I got hooked Picture Quote #1

Poverty can’t be an excuse for bad teaching, but teaching can’t be the only thing we do to combat poverty Picture Quote #1

I love to make soups. My father used to say, ‘There’s nothing like a nice bowl of soup.’ One of my favorites is... ready? Broccolini, white bean and hot Italian sausage soup. I’ve used escarole. Escarole in beans is unbelievable, or you can use bok choy, any kind. You can really fool around. That’s one of my good ones Picture Quote #1

I was training in Gleason’s Gym on 30th and 8th Avenue, where it was the Mecca of boxing, and a guy walked in who couldn’t rub two quarters together and said, ‘Did you ever think of being on TV?’ And somehow I ended up in ‘Taxi,’ which is the craziest thing of all Picture Quote #1

I wasn’t a bad kid. I was a good kid. But I had gotten in a lot of fights ‘cause in the neighborhood I grew up in, that wasn’t equated with bad behavior almost. I mean, we’d fought like it was another game. ‘You wanna play stick ball today?’ ‘Nah, let’s go fight.’ Picture Quote #1

I worked at an old folks’ home once in Harlem, and I was an activities volunteer. I used to do all these plays with the old people. I did ‘The Wizard of Oz;’ it was adapted. There was a guy there who played the harmonica, so we had an overture, and The Wizard was 96 Picture Quote #1

I’m an American songbook guy, though I’ve got eclectic tastes. I really love the American songbook. I’ve taken up the ukulele, and so you can play ‘Five Foot Two’ and Hawaiian music, but you can also do some of the great tunes, like ‘You Go to My Head,’ ‘I Guess I’ll Hang My Tears Out to Dry,’ ‘Taking a Chance on Love.’ Picture Quote #1

I love to cook and I know a lot of people watching love those segments, but so often they feel rushed to me. If we give ‘em a bit more time to breathe, people will get more out of them Picture Quote #1

I’m into women. I just really like women a lot Picture Quote #1

I got this call that they wanted me to join this cast. They called it a family show, and it thought that it would be similar to all family shows. I wasn’t sure about this until I watched some tapes, and was amazed Picture Quote #1

Everyone kept telling me, just be yourself. Be yourself. I kept thinking, there’s got to be more to it than that! Picture Quote #1

Look, when I got in trouble in school I got in trouble at home. Now when kids get in trouble at school, the teacher gets in trouble. So the families are important Picture Quote #1

One of the best indicators of student achievement is the academic success of the mother in the home Picture Quote #1

We can’t want an education for kids more than they want it for themselves Picture Quote #1
