Having Dinner With Family Quotes

My father was a really sharp cartoonist and filmmaker. He used to tape-record the family surreptitiously, either while we were driving around or at dinner, and in 1963 he and I made up a story about a brother and a sister, Lisa and Matt, having an adventure out in the woods with animals Picture Quote #1

Family is always first. Even though my kids are older - my son is 25 and my daughter is 21 - I still like to sit down and have dinner with them as much as I can Picture Quote #1

We have dinner every single night, Monday through Friday, with our children. We sit down around 6 or 6:30 and it’s a family dinner - it’s time to check in, just to be around each other Picture Quote #1

When my children were growing up, we began every family meal - which included breakfast and dinner every day - with a prayer. We are Jewish and so it was the prayer over bread, when we were having bread, or the catch-all prayer for everything when we weren’t Picture Quote #1

We always have dinner together as a family - even when our schedules are totally hectic. I inherited that from my mom, who would come home from her ad agency job to eat with us before going back to work Picture Quote #1

The high spot of my day has always been getting home to have my dinner with my family. It still is: to have my dinner with Helen. It’s a cocktail and dinner. I know I’m a tired old geezer, but there you are Picture Quote #1

It turns out there’s only 10 minutes of productive conversation in any family dinner. The rest is taken up with ‘take your elbows off the table’ and ‘pass the ketchup.’ And what researchers have found is you can take that 10 minutes and put it in any time of the day and get the benefit. So, if you can’t have family dinner, have family breakfast! Picture Quote #1

I take my kids to school. And if I go to work, I go to work, and they visit me on set. I come home. I have dinner with my family. I have breakfast with my family. I have a very solid, very warm home Picture Quote #1

The real test will be having a family; when I have a family you have to come home, you have to eat dinner with your kids Picture Quote #1

Well, sometimes if I go out to dinner with my family, people will come up to me and put their hand across my plate for me to shake, sometimes when I have a bite of food in my mouth. I find this a bit disturbing Picture Quote #1

My favorite season was when I wrote every morning for three or four hours, then I would go and teach my classes at school, come home to my family and hang out with them, have dinner, and then, after everyone was tucked in, I would prepare for my classes the next day Picture Quote #1

I do interviews and signings and readings and all of these people just hang off my every word. And then I go home and have dinner with my family and nobody lets me get a word in Picture Quote #1
