I sailboat raced, I love to go out on my motorcycle alone, but I also love my family dearly. I love that aspect of my life as well.
My family was loving... they were very supportive and very affectionate, and basically I could do what I wanted, and basically it wasn't anything dangerous, thank God.
I was born on Wellington Avenue and my family that remains lives in the Lake Shore Drive area.
I'm from Chicago, my family started a chain of movie theaters in Chicago that were around for 70 years and then one of them became the head of Paramount and the other was the head of production at MGM and we all came out of Chicago.
I always wanted to be a farmer. There is a tradition of that in my family.
My sense of personal strength has always come from my family.
I hate to be fatalistic about it, but alcoholism, it's just in your genes. We had some of it in my family, and it just got me.
When I was very young, I used to share much of what I wrote with my family, but as I got older and more self-conscious, it became a much more private process.
I think there's a down-to-earthness with Midwesterners and with people from the Midlands - which is where my family is from - in Ireland.
My films are of paramount importance to me, the same as my family. That's not going to change. This is a balance I have to strike throughout my life.
I'm feeling how profoundly my family disappointed me and in the end how I retreated, how I became nothing, because that was much less risky than attempting to be something, to be anything in the face of such contempt.
I have to protect my family and have a life with them that is completely private.
It all starts with the script: it's not worth taking myself away from my family if I don't have something I'm really passionate about.
What's important is that my family and I are all good.
My family, my parents are hippies.
I would never put my job before my family.
All the women in my family are extremely strong.
In my family, I'm short.
My family, we're all WASPs.
I love my family, they love me. And my little brothers, they're like my sons. I raised them.
I really understand the idea of pride and honour. I have that in my family, so I understand it completely.
There is no day more joyful in my life than when I see all my family around me. That's the best it gets.
My family and I built my whole career from scratch.
My family and my friends-they keep me grounded. Especially my mom, because she would kick my ass if I was to change.
They can't fire me because my family buys too many tickets.
