“I remember a very important lesson that my father gave me when I was twelve or thirteen. He said, "You know, today I welded a perfect seam and I signed my name to it." And I said, "But, Daddy, no one's going to see it!" And he said, "Yeah, but I know it's there." So when I was working in kitchens, I did good work.” KnowsSaidImportantTodayRememberFatherNamesPerfectLessonsYeahKitchenTwelveGood WorkDaddyThirteenImportant Lessons Author:Toni Morrison

“If at age 10 I say there are monsters in the basement and they don't believe it, I would have stayed in that house. My father would have said "Shut up and get to your room." So I thought the only sanctioned tyranny in the world is parenthood and everybody goes "Yeah."

“I'm not thinking about forcing my kids to watch my movies. It's always awkward when someone says: "Hey, I wrote a song, can I play it for you?" That would be the dynamic, if I was like: "Hey, you're my son, watch my work!" I don't want to put them in that awkward position. Just because when they get older, that's when I'm worried, that they'll judge me and say: "Yeah, my father's ******* Jack Black. He was in that cheesy movie." So, I'm going to keep it all high quality. It'll be a quality controller.” IfsThinkingWantPlayHandsWould BeKidsSongFatherBlackQualityWatchesPositionSonJudgingMouthsYeahHeyWorriedMy SonAwkwardCheesyHigh QualityHey YouJudge MeControllers Author:Jack Black
