“I had this extraordinarily bizarre moment when, two Fridays ago, my missus gave birth to our second child at 11am and by the same time the following day I was sitting around a table with Ridley Scott, Russell Crowe and Leonardo DiCaprio in Rabat in Morocco, rehearsing a scene we were going to shoot the next day.” ChildrenTwoMomentsNextBirthSceneSittingTablesFollowingNext DayBizarreFridaySitting AroundLeonardoRehearsingMoroccoSitting Around A Table Author:Mark Strong
“Yes, I have four children. Four children with whom I spend a good part of every day: bathing them, combing their hair, sitting with them while they do their homework, holding them while they weep their tragic tears. But I'm not in love with any of them. I am in love with my husband.” ChildrenFourTearsHairHusbandSittingOur ChildrenTragicMy HusbandHomeworkBathing Author:Ayelet Waldman
“In early youth, as we contemplate our coming life, we are like children in a theatre before the curtain is raised, sitting there in high spirits and eagerly waiting for the play to begin. It is a blessing that we do not know what is really going to happen. Could we foresee it, there are times when children might seem like innocent prisoners, condemned, not to death, but to life, and as yet all unconscious of what their sentence means.” KnowsMeanChildrenPlaySeemsMightHappensSpiritWaitingYouthBlessingSittingRaisedSentencesTheatreInnocentUnconsciousPrisonerContemplatingCurtains Book:Suffering, Suicide and Immortality: Eight Essays from The Parerga Source: Suffering, Suicide and Immortality: Eight Essays from The Parerga
“Disneyland really began when my two daughters were very young. Saturday was always Daddy's Day and I would take them to the merry-go-round, and sit on a bench eating peanuts while they rode. And sitting there alone, I felt there should be something built, some kind of family park where parents and children could have fun together.” ShouldKindChildrenTwoTogetherYoungFunFeltParentEatingDaughterSittingBuiltRoundsHaving FunParksSaturdayDaddyMerryBenchesPeanutsDisneylandChildren And ParentsAnimatorTwo DaughtersTheme ParksMerry Go RoundParks And RecreationSitting On The Bench Author:Walt Disney
“There's something suspicious about saying, 'I'm just going to leave my child alone and let her pursue her passions.' You know what? I think most 13-year-olds' passion is sitting in front of the TV, or doing Facebook, or surfing the Internet for hours.” ThinkingKnowsYearsChildrenPassionHoursFrontsTvsInternetSittingPursueMy ChildrenSurfingSuspiciousSurfing The Internet Author:Amy Chua
“Even as a child, I just leaned towards the scary. I remember seeing Halloween, for the first time. I snuck into the theater and was sitting there with a group of friends in the front row, and I turned back to look at the audience. They were screaming and interacting with the screen and were interacting with Jamie Lee Curtis as she walked through that horrible night. I just thought, "I want to do that."” WantFirstsLooksChildrenRememberNightAudienceSeeingGroupsFrontsSittingFirst TimeTheaterScaryScreensHorribleHalloweenInteractingJamieGroup Of Friends Author:Kevin D.
