Quote by Mark Ruffalo

“"What is normal?" really becomes the question. What is normal, and how are we fooled into thinking it's something other than what we're doing at any given time. Every family has either a drug addict or an alcoholic or some sort of dysfunction that the family is dealing with. And I think the grace of this family is that they actually could be that far out there but also be forgiving, and be really human, and be human in front of each other without much shame.”

“A home life where it's so full of so many rigorous ideas about the way things should be, this word "should," I think is absolutely toxic to children.

An element of allowance in a family, is, I think, really a positive thing.”
