“I grew up in Glen Ellyn, which is about 20 miles west of Chicago. I attended Glenbard South High School and University of Illinois. I didn't study acting until I moved to Los Angeles after college, but the fact that I was raised in the Chicago area set the stage for all of my comedic and acting sensibilities.” FactsSchoolActingStudyStageCollegeGrewGrew UpHigh SchoolAreasMovedWestSouthRaisedUniversityMilesLos AngelesChicagoSensibilityComedicIllinois Author:Ryan McPartlin
“Things are so busy and so quick, and there’s so much going on, you have to realise the time when you have to take a step back, take a breath and really think back to where you come from. I’m from a very, very rural place. There’s really nobody out there, just roads and farms. I had a long transition to get to where I am now. I moved away when I was young, when I was about 19. I’d literally come from an area with dirt roads and stuff like that, right to the centre of a city of about five million people. It’s been great. I’m based in New York and every day it's amazing.” PeopleThinkingLongYoungStuffCitiesStepsMillionsFiveNew YorkAreasBreathsMovedBusyRealisingFarmsTransitionDirtCentreWhere You ComeDirt Roads Author:Diego Klattenhoff
“At lucky moments this emanation could overwhelm the spectator in such a way, that because of all sorts of associations in his thinking, he could finally be taken to those areas which also had moved me so deeply and made me think I should draw the attention of others to it.” ThinkingWayShouldMadeMomentsAttentionTakenLuckyDrawsAreasMovedAssociationSpectators Author:Antoni Tapies
“I just moved onto Queen West, after 20 years in Cabbagetown. The whole area around Trinity-Bellwoods is one of the juiciest in Toronto - all kinds of people to watch, dogs to pat, food to eat, galleries to check out.

“There was an Israeli artist who was in grad school with me. I remember trying to get to know him on a more personal level. He had moved to the Fairfax area, not realizing that it's a super Jewish part of L.A. He told me, I don't understand why American Jews feel this connection with me. I was embarrassed because I was feeling that connection with him, too!” KnowsFeelsTryingFeelingsSchoolRememberArtistRealizingLevelsAreasConnectionsMovedJewEmbarrassedIsraeliGradGrad School Author:Jill Soloway
“At the end of the elementary program, I then had to move onto high school. Simultaneously, my parents moved to Attica to a suburban area not far from the well-known Attica State Prison.

“This is another area in which savings can also be moved from wasteful - like the F-35 weapons system that will cost us $1.5 trillion by the time it's done and it's obsolete, you know, it's a weapons system - as well as this global military infrastructure, which is unlike anything the world has ever known at any time.” KnowsWorldWellsDoneKnownMilitaryCostWeaponsAreasMovedSavingInfrastructureSavingsObsolete Author:Jill Stein
“When I was 12, we moved from New Jersey to Florida. The Gulf of Mexico was literally my backyard. Every day, I could see the ocean. At low tide I went out and played in seagrass meadows that used to come right up to the shore, filled with tiny seahorses, pipefish and soft corals. There was so much life! But then I witnessed the change, the loss of the shoreline, the loss of the mangrove trees, the loss of the seagrass meadows. Shallow bay areas were turned into parking lots.” UsedLossTreeOceanLowsAreasMovedFilledTinyShoreMexicoTidesFloridaShallowJerseyMeadowsParkingNew JerseyBackyardsParking LotBay AreaGulf Of MexicoShoreline Author:Sylvia Earle
“The public has moved beyond politicians. For example, I'm not worried about them repealing protections for the LGBT community, because the public is beyond that. I'm not worried about them being able to change the way in which we have reached out and provided many more opportunities for women. And I - but here's what does concern me. What concerns me is that they will make some judgments in the foreign policy area, without having thought it through that may cause a lot of problems.” WayMayDoeProblemAbleOpportunityCausesCommunityPolicyExamplePoliticianJudgmentAreasConcernMovedProtectionWorriedLgbtForeign PolicyLgbt CommunityRepealing Author:Joe Biden
