Cousins Quotes

South Central is just who I am. Even though I have a nice house, nice family, the rest of my generation is still in South Central L.A. My cousins, my brothers, my sisters, they don’t wanna move out Picture Quote #1

It’s funny in the U.K., where I’m not really known because I never did a soap. My English cousins in the Lake District think I’m not a real actor because they’ve never seen me in ‘Home and Away’ or ‘Neighbours.’ Picture Quote #1

I must confess that in my teens and twenties, I loved ‘Mansfield Park’ rather in spite of Fanny than because of her. Like Fanny’s rich, sophisticated cousins, I didn’t really get her Picture Quote #1

I grew up in a small town in West Virginia called Kenova. It’s the city where the plane crashed from Marshall University. I watched the mountain burn, and my cousins were the volunteer firemen. I was 6 years old at the time Picture Quote #1

I’m a big fan of gallows humor. When my aunt passed away, she was in a coma for a day before my cousins pulled the plug. And the amount of joking and base humor that went on that day around her bed was so insane. It’s crazy how people talk when something horrible is happening Picture Quote #1

Genius everywhere is one. In the Orient and in the Occident the deep thinkers are kin, the poets are cousins, the pioneers of the spirit are the messengers of peace and good will to the world. Their works are the open highways between nations, and they themselves are the ever living guardians and guides Picture Quote #1

What the fossil record does do is to force us to contemplate our place on the planet. We are but one species of several hominids that inhabited Planet Earth, and like our distant cousins who went extinct fairly recently, our time on Planet Earth is also finite Picture Quote #1

Tuscan sausages are smaller than their American cousins, each one demarcated with a string, a graceful loop drawn tightly into a knot - looping and tightening, looping and tightening, a symmetrically floppy, aesthetically appealing rhythm Picture Quote #1

Children need stimulation and stability. That can come from grandparents, cousins, teachers, nannies, childcare centres - as long as they engage with the children and are really fond of them. There are also times when children need to be left alone to learn to be independent and to encourage their imaginary friends Picture Quote #1

You named them: hustlers, killers, fiends, ex-cons. I called them: cousins, aunts, pops, moms. To you? Hoodlums, crackheads, gunmens. To me? Just neighbors, classmates, young friends Picture Quote #1

My whole family is spiritual. My grandmother, grand aunt, cousins, they’re all preachers and pastors. Spirituality is a part of my family, from generations ago Picture Quote #1

All my cousins steal things. They’re just a bunch of thieves. My whole family is like that. You put something down for a second, and they steal it. You never see it again Picture Quote #1

I have a ton of cousins on my mom’s side of the family, and we would put on shows together all the time and put on costumes, and we even charged our parents money Picture Quote #1

I was brought up to look after my parents. My family were Polish Jews, and we lived with my grandmother, with uncles and aunts and cousins all around, and I thought everybody lived like that Picture Quote #1

I see my friends, my family, my cousins work all day long for very little money, and if I have this problem of not being able to wall on the streets, it’s not a big deal Picture Quote #1

I’ve always been an actress, entertaining my family was the start. I’m a goof ball among many of my cousins and siblings Picture Quote #1

Historically, there would always be people among the general population who had family members, friends, cousins who’d done time or who’d been in prison Picture Quote #1

All I can say is, it’s a sort of kinship, as though there is a family tree of grief. On this branch, the lost children, on this the suicided parents, here the beloved mentally ill siblings. When something terrible happens, you discover all of the sudden that you have a new set of relatives, people with whom you can speak in the shorthand of cousins Picture Quote #1

It doesn’t matter to me. We’re still cousins in our own way. Blood’s just something old people talk about to make you feel bad Picture Quote #1

For generations comedians have made jokes about Scots-Irish in the South inter-breeding. I am my own grandpa and all that stuff; you know, because they all were marrying their first cousins Picture Quote #1

I thought it was normal to recycle pants and shoes from your older cousins. That was just my way of life. At the end of the month, there was not much food in the refrigerator and you’re hoping the first comes so food can come again. You never forget those things Picture Quote #1

Brantford was the fixed point of my universe, growing up. Both sets of grandparents lived there, with various cousins and uncles and aunts, and no matter how far we’d moved off, we came back there for regular visits. In a way no other houses have ever been, my grandparents’ houses were ‘home,’ and the sale of the last of those houses was hard Picture Quote #1

Right when ‘High School Musical’ was taking off, one of my little cousins called and was really excited to tell me there was a huge ‘I Hate Zac Efron’ club at her school. I’m sure they’re doing great. More power to them Picture Quote #1
