I was thirty years old. I had lost my father and mother eighteen or twenty years before, so long ago that  (My Father Quotes) I came to understand that my father was a careful man. To be careful with people and with words was a rare and beautiful thing  (My Father Quotes) Sir - sir, it is a boy! A boy, said my father, looking up from his book, and evidently much puzzled; what is a boy?  (My Father Quotes) And so my father changed his name to William Pretty and here he grew up and led an independent life. And if it was not happy, he didn't know it  (My Father Quotes) My mother and I were like two continents moving slowly but inexorably apart; my father, the bridge builder, constantly extending the fragile edifice he had constructed to connect us  (My Father Quotes) It is important not to copy other people's careers but set the tone of who you want to be.

Because my father was a teacher of Japanese literature, I just wanted to do something else  (My Father Quotes) You must wear your rue with a difference. There's a daisy. I would give you some violets, but they withered all when my father died  (My Father Quotes) My father probably thought the capital of the world was wherever he was at the time.

So by the age of five, I was awake with him all night long, watching bad television or we'd lie in the same bed, and I'd read my comic books while he read his latest spy or mystery novel  (My Father Quotes) My father names me Autolycus, who being, as I am, littered under Mercury, was likewise a snapper up of unconsidered trifles  (My Father Quotes) It was my father who taught me to value myself. He told me that I was uncommonly beautiful and that I was the most precious thing in his life  (My Father Quotes) I just owe almost everything to my father and it's passionately interesting for me that the things that I learned in a small town, in a very modest home, are just the things that I believe have won the election  (My Father Quotes) Sitting on a bank, weeping again the King my father's wrack, this music crept by me upon the waters, allaying both their fury and my passion With its sweet air  (My Father Quotes) My first memories of religion were being taken to Episcopal church. My father was Catholic, but my mother, I believe, was Episcopal. So I sort of veered off into the watered down version of Catholicism  (My Father Quotes) I'm not a guy who curses very much in my personal life. When I curse it sounds like a kid trying to be cool. But I think there are quite a few people, my father being one of them, who use curse words rather eloquently  (My Father Quotes) A took my father grossly, full of bread, with all his crimes broad blown, as flush as May; and how his audit stands, who knows save heaven?  (My Father Quotes) What should a man do but be merry? For look you how cheerfully my mother looks, and my father died within's two hours  (My Father Quotes) At land indeed thou dost overcount me of my father's house: but since the cuckoo builds not for himself, remain in't as thou mayst  (My Father Quotes) What I learned most from my father wasn't anything he said; it was just the way he behaved. He loved his work so much that, whenever he came on set, he brought that with him, and other people rose to it  (My Father Quotes) When I was a kid, Eisenhower had been President forever, and all of a sudden, everything in the world was all about Jack Kennedy.

Everything has to be earned, through work, persistence and honesty  (My Father Quotes) 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  (My Father Quotes) I told my father I wanted to play the banjo, and so he saved the money and got ready to give me a banjo for my next birthday, and between that time and my birthday, I lost interest in the banjo and was playing guitar  (My Father Quotes) I think I've always been somebody, since the deaths of my father and brother, who was afraid to hope.

Daddy and I were best friends  (My Father Quotes) To this day, I am the least materialistic person I know, because my father didn't raise me to just go out and buy this or that car. The only reason I wanted to make money as an actor was because I'm passionate about food!  (My Father Quotes)
