“All that stuff about my father and my childhood is interesting up to a certain point, but I kind of capsized with the family drama a long time ago. Now I want to get away from that. Not that I won't return to it, but a certain element has been exhausted, and it feels like why regurgitate all this stuff?” WantFeelsKindLongHas BeensCertainFatherStuffInterestingChildhoodReturnDramaElementsLong TimeGet AwayExhaustedLong Time AgoFamily Drama Author:Sam Shepard

“My childhood was epitomized by my parents who were uneducated but had a doctorate in love. My dad pressed coats and through my mom and dad I learned about love, family and respecting people.

“Femininity, yes, effectively there is more in The First Man, not only in terms of women but stylistically, in its elements, the notes he wrote. You can see a real love story in it, a childhood love story, [Albert] Camus' first. Meursault [protagonist of The Outsider] and Marie were never up to much really. There is Dora in The Just and others in his plays, but they aren't so well known.” MenFirstsWellsRealPlayStoriesTermKnownChildhoodElementsNotesLove StoryReal LoveOutsidersWell KnownFemininityProtagonistsMarie Author:Catherine Camus
“In effect, I grew up in a sort of timewarp, a place where times are scrambled up. There are elements of my childhood that look to me now, in memory more like the 1940s or the 1950s than the 1960s. Jack [Womack] says that that made us science fiction writers, because we grew up experiencing a kind of time travel.” LooksKindMadeMemoriesFictionChildhoodEffectsGrewElementsGrew UpScience FictionTime Travel1960sFiction Writers Author:William Gibson
“[Harriet Tubman] spoke passionately about her parents, her friends, shared stories about her childhood - learning about all these elements and aspects of her was mind-blowing and educational for me as a woman because I have to sometimes remind people that have known me for years, even in past relationships, that I'm still a woman, I still have vulnerabilities even though my aesthetic feels strong, powerful and full of all of the wisdom in the world, I'm still growing and becoming.” PeopleWorldFeelsYearsMindStillsSometimesStoriesPastStrongParentPowerfulKnownGrowingChildhoodBecomingElementsAspectEducationalVulnerabilitySpokesAestheticMind BlowingPast Relationship Author:Aisha Hinds
“There was one element of my childhood that was really a positive asset for me. By moving a lot, I learned to assimilate into whatever new surroundings I had and to become very comfortable with people quickly. I think that was one of the strongest contributing factors to my becoming an actor, because I constantly had to readjust, even reinvent. But at the same time, it also became very easy for me not to become attached to people, places, or things. I learned to enjoy people and places for the time I had, for the moment, to be in the moment, and move on.” PeopleThinkingMomentsMovingActorsEasyEnjoyChildhoodBecomingElementsComfortableFactorsStrongestAssetsSurroundingsContributing Author:Demi Moore
