I was always on the go and thought I was too busy to develop something like this. I thought at the time that diabetes went along with bad habits but I was the last one in my family to eat junk food.
While I have felt lonely many times in my life the oddest feeling of all was after my mother Lucille died. My father had already died but I always had some attachment to our big family while she was alive. It seems strange to say now that I felt so lonely yet I did.
For me family always comes first I would do anything to protect them.
My mom always said I was the peacemaker in the family. My older brother Eric was the leader the creative one. I was just his puppet.
My family can always tell when I'm well into a novel because the meals get very crummy.
I've been through a lot of things in my personal and family life. That turned me into a fighter. I always strive to be the best I possibly can.
But in my heart of hearts this is the kind of thing... this is what everyone is struggling with in their lives - relationships and family. To me it's always an interesting area to mine. I'm drawn to it.
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.
I'm a strange mixture of my mother's curiosity my father who grew up the son of the manse in a Presbyterian family who had a tremendous sense of duty and responsibility and my mother's father who was always in trouble with gambling debts.
Because I didn't have brothers I was always interested in the kids down the street that had four brothers in their family so I became one of them - but it was not my family.
My family moved a lot as a kid. We started in Colorado where I lived for five years. We moved to Chicago for two years to San Francisco for one year Connecticut for seven Oregon for a couple years and then I went to school. So I was always moving I'm still always moving.
I've always wanted to get into acting ever since I was younger. I'd put on shows for my family and run around play dress-up all the time. I think I was 4 when I told them I wanted to do movies.
We do not always appreciate the role the Queen has played in one of the most significant changes in the past 60 years: the transformation of Britain into a multi-ethnic multi-faith society. No one does interfaith better than the Royal family and it starts with the Queen herself.
I always wanted to be a farmer. There is a tradition of that in my family.
I'm an actor I'm not a politician. I always kick myself when I talk too much about family or personal things.
My family... always had the value of the family table and these cultural influences of growing up.
If you go from a structure where you have the support and that partner and that construction of a family and that's broken apart I think that's probably a lot harder than always being a single mom and having the father being a support in another area.
My family and friends treat me as they always have.
A loving family provides the foundation children need to succeed and strong families with a man and a woman - bonded together for life - always have been and always will be the key to such families.
The purpose of the Seder to my mind is to inspire conversations with your family about the human drama and hopefully transmit values to the next generation. I've always felt like this could be better.
When I was working and when I was making substantial amounts of money I always filed and paid my taxes. This only stopped when it was necessary to withdraw from society in order to guarantee the safety and well-being of myself and my family.
I've always wanted to do a family movie.
I always wanted my music to influence the life you were living emotionally - with your family your lover your wife and at a certain point with your children.
My work's never been accepted by my family but it's something I'll always carry on with.
Mother Nature comes up against reality and the reality is that the system doesn't work.
