Being a fan of the business for years and wanting to be an actor for years, I knew, if ever the opportunity came for me, I would already know what to expect. I know what comes along with it. The best thing I can do is take it all in and go with the flow.

Being a father at a later age is different from when I had my other two daughters when I was in my 20s and 30s. If you're in your 60s and you're with the kid every day, you're dealing with the mind of a child, so it opens up that childishness in you again.
‐‐ Martin Scorsese
Being a father can 'unreason' your worldview, or at least make it very flexible, and that can create all sorts of fun and insights. It's sad that children's open-eyed wonder and sense of play begin to fade as they approach adolescence. One grand function of fathering is to keep the fading to a minimum.
‐‐ Clyde Edgerton
Being a father has been, without a doubt, my greatest source of achievement, pride and inspiration. Fatherhood has taught me about unconditional love, reinforced the importance of giving back and taught me how to be a better person.
‐‐ Naveen Jain
Being a father has fulfilled me in parts of my life that sustain me. It gives me a comfort and patience. All actors have this hole inside that they're trying to fill by performing. I'm anxious to keep creating, but I'm not so desperate any more because I have the love and support of my kids and wife.

Being a father is just wonderful.

‐‐ James E. Faust
Being a father to my family and a husband is to me much more important than what I did in the business.
‐‐ Tom Bosley
Being a father, well, I don't know if this is a change, but it makes me want to get out of here faster. Get off the clock. Just 'cause the baby is my reason for living, my reason for coming to work.
‐‐ Richard Dean Anderson
Being a female comic and getting a Comedy Central special is an honor because not a lot of women get that.
‐‐ Loni Love
Being a fiction writer makes you someone who works with irresponsibility.

Being a film actor is very different from a theatre actor.
‐‐ Catherine Deneuve
Being a filmmaker in the digital platform has given me complete creative control. I can make what I want, when I want. I don't have to wait to book an audition.
‐‐ Anna Akana
Being a filmmaker is kind of like being a glorified spy.
‐‐ Jehane Noujaim
Being a food show and being me, I always kicked it up a notch, which means I would always elevate the spice level or the complexity of a particular dish. So, it was always like we're going to kick this up a little bit.
‐‐ Emeril Lagasse
Being a football manager is no fun at all. You have to put up with all the hassle. It is not surprising that so many turn grey or have heart attacks.
‐‐ Ruud Gullit
Being a foreigner is not a disease.
‐‐ Alden Nowlan
Being a former engineer, you learn to always go back, study yourself, see what you could've done differently, see what you could've said.
‐‐ Loni Love
Being a former theater student, of course, there is a part of me that is fascinated with stage crafts and what you can do with illusions and working within the confines of the studio.
‐‐ Francis Ford Coppola
Being a full human being is difficult, frightening, and problematical.
‐‐ Abraham Maslow
Being a funny person does an awful lot of things to you. You feel that you mustn't get serious with people. They don't expect it from you, and they don't want to see it. You're not entitled to be serious, you're a clown.
‐‐ Fanny Brice
Being a gal, people can be a bit patronizing. 'Oh, look at you using the computer.' They would never say that to a boy. And I don't let them do it to me.
‐‐ FKA twigs
Being a geek is a great thing. I think we're all geeks. Being a geek means you're passionate about something and that defines your uniqueness. I would rather be passionate about something than be apathetic about everything.
‐‐ Masi Oka
Being a geek is all about learning the inventories of things.
‐‐ Adam Savage
Being a gentleman is a worthy goal.
‐‐ Orlando Bloom
Being a good actor isn't easy. Being a man is even harder. I want to be both before I'm done.
‐‐ James Dean
Being a good girl means suppressing a lot.
‐‐ Jennifer Jason Leigh
Being a good Hans Haacke student, part of his influence on me is that there's no difference between a gallery show and a film - or even an ad and a T-shirt-in terms of cultural legitimacy. They're just different contexts in which to have some sort of communication.
‐‐ Mike Mills
Being a good host offsets the deprivation and loneliness of my youth.

Being a good husband is like being a good stand-up comic - you need ten years before you can even call yourself a beginner.
‐‐ Jerry Seinfeld
Being a good leader requires remembering that you're there for a reason, and the reason certainly isn't to have your way. High-integrity leaders not only welcome questioning and criticism - they insist on it.
‐‐ Travis Bradberry
Being a good listener is absolutely critical to being a good leader; you have to listen to the people who are on the front line.
‐‐ Richard Branson
Being a good listener is more than just being quiet. It's reflecting back on what you're hearing. It's processing the information to formulate a question, a comment or a speech.
‐‐ Shelley Moore Capito
Being a good mother does not call for the same qualities as being a good housewife; a dedication to keeping children clean and tidy may override an interest in their separate development as individuals.
‐‐ Ann Oakley
Being a good neighbour is about compassion, which is as warm-blooded as justice is cool-headed.
‐‐ Julian Baggini
Being a good observer is a great tool to have as a writer, just taking the world in.
