I was raised Catholic, and I can get incredibly guilty about mistakes.

I was raised Catholic, and I have an aversion to anyone who takes religion to the extreme.
‐‐ Conor Oberst
I was raised Catholic and I'm Presbyterian now, but I've always been a Christian, regardless of denomination. I believe that Jesus is the way.
‐‐ Patricia Heaton
I was raised Catholic, and I remember in all the pamphlets and pictures we'd look at, Jesus was basically blonde with blue eyes. He kind of looked like Jared Leto.
‐‐ Joel Edgerton
I was raised Catholic and I went to church until I was 16. I went through a phase when I was 15 of being quite fanatically Catholic. I was going to church a lot, receiving communion, saying the Rosary, praying, all that stuff. But when I started scrutinizing it, it just fell apart so quickly.
‐‐ Robert Crumb
I was raised Catholic, and then I kind of wandered away somewhere in high-school. I never got confirmed, which is a big deal.
‐‐ Mike Birbiglia
I was raised Catholic at a time when Vatican II was just taking hold.
‐‐ Richard Montanari
I was raised Catholic, but my father's people were Methodist, so we went to both churches.
‐‐ Aaron Neville
I was raised Catholic, but then I discovered Buddhism, and I used to have a boyfriend who was a Scientologist, and they are all good religions that help people. As far as I'm concerned, you can have all three religions at once and it's okay!
‐‐ Penelope Cruz
I was raised Catholic... I fell in love with certain ideals.
‐‐ Jon Voight
I was raised Catholic. I went to Catholic school for 12 years.

‐‐ Natasha Leggero
I was raised Catholic in the Midwest, so I can't enjoy anything.
‐‐ Kyle Kinane
I was raised Catholic. Not just a little bit Catholic, like my wife, Catherine. When she was young, many Catholics in France already barely went to church, except for the big three: baptism, marriage, and funeral. And only the middle one was by choice.
‐‐ Frans de Waal
I was raised Catholic until I was old enough to say no.
‐‐ John Cusack
I was raised Christian; I was raised in the South where everybody's raised Christian, but at this point, I'm 41 years old, and I've been an atheist, at this point, a little more than half my life.
‐‐ Jason Aaron
I was raised doing martial arts.
‐‐ Victor Webster
I was raised, I feel like, on television, definitely a child of TV, and was always fascinated by storytelling.
‐‐ Jim Rash
I was raised in a Bronx public housing project, but studied at two of the nation's finest universities. I did work as an assistant district attorney, prosecuting violent crimes that devastate our communities.
‐‐ Sonia Sotomayor
I was raised in a Catholic family, spent twelve years in parochial schools, and had extremely fond memories of my interactions with Catholic clergy.
‐‐ Jennifer Haigh
I was raised in a Catholic school, and I would always go to church on Sunday, and I would hear the same music over and over and over and over again, same gospels, hymns, everything.
‐‐ Charlie Puth
I was raised in a Christian home and, in fact, my mother led me to Christ as a youngster.
‐‐ Jerry B. Jenkins
I was raised in a Christian household and heard a lot of praise music, so that's what helps me get to an emotional place.
‐‐ Steven Yeun
I was raised in a climate where I believed in God because I was afraid of going to hell - and I didn't think that was the right way to fall in love with somebody.
‐‐ Scott Stapp
I was raised in a community of Christian orthodoxy that had traveled with my parents to Los Angeles when they moved there for my father's job.
‐‐ Margaret Stohl
I was raised in a dominantly Filipino family. I didn't know I was 'mixed' until I got older and started asking questions about my grandparents, the origins of our middle and last names. We were kind of textbook Pinoys. A lot of the Filipino stereotypes that were joked about by me and my friends rang very true with my family.
‐‐ Vincent Rodriguez III
I was raised in a family where cinema was a way of life. It was not only about making films, it was relationship, passion, love, everything at the same time.
‐‐ Thomas Langmann
I was raised in a family where no one had a serious bone in their body and every answer was a riddle, a joke, or a prank.
‐‐ James Brolin
I was raised in a family where none of us ever raised a voice, so there was no room to express feelings of rage or even unabashed joy - a little bashed joy, here or there, or being mildly disgruntled.
‐‐ Anne Lamott
I was raised in a family where vulnerability was barely tolerated: no training wheels on our bicycles, no goggles in the pool, just get it done. And so I grew up not only with discomfort about my own vulnerability, I didn't care for it in other people either.
‐‐ Brene Brown
I was raised in a group home for 14 years, so I was a beneficiary of philanthropy. I didn't have a family. The nameless, faceless strangers were my family. They gave me an education, put food on the table and clothes on my back. I am who I am because of that formative experience. Now I am paying it forward.
‐‐ Darell Hammond
I was raised in a heavily Catholic family. Early and consistent encounters with mysticism.
‐‐ Nic Pizzolatto
I was raised in a large family. The first reason for my travel was to get away from my family. I knew that I wanted to be a writer, but I didn't want people to ask me questions about it.
‐‐ Paul Theroux
I was raised in a little church, the Grundy Methodist Church, that was very straight-laced, but I had a friend whose mother spoke in tongues. I was just wild for this family. My own parents were older, and they were so over-protective. I just loved the 'letting go' that would happen when I went to church with my friend.
‐‐ Lee Smith
I was raised in a lower-income family, and we were wild.
‐‐ Rene Russo
I was raised in a mostly white neighborhood. I was this little white girl jamming out to Ella Fitzgerald and Bobby Brown.
‐‐ JoJo
I was raised in a nominal Roman Catholic home, but without any really strong faith there.
‐‐ Frederica Mathewes-Green
I was raised in a really terrific, close family, and I've never needed to escape anything or to really let myself go by dancing on tables.
‐‐ Blake Lively
I was raised in a reform synagogue. I think we all bring with us a sense of when hard things happen to us, we find ourselves asking questions of why are these things happening to me at this time in my life. I think in that sense, there's a certain resonance that I carry. It's more of a spiritual resonance as opposed to particularly of Judaism.
‐‐ Michael Stuhlbarg
I was raised in a religious environment, and my wife is one of the more religious people that I have ever known.
‐‐ Lou Holtz
I was raised in a solidly upper-middle class family who had really strong values and excess was not one of the things that my family put up with. And there's something wildy decadent about the young-star lifestyle, and I just don't really see the point.
‐‐ Anne Hathaway
I was raised in a spirit of the importance of service to your fellow man. My mom is a senator back home in South Africa. My father is a very caring and generous individual.
‐‐ Adhir Kalyan
I was raised in a strict Southern household in Lexington, South Carolina, and I remember sneaking off to watch 'Pet Cemetery' as a kid. After seeing those animals reincarnate, I screamed and couldn't sleep for weeks, but watched it again and again.
‐‐ Jessica Stroup
I was raised in a super-sheltered atmosphere where we didn't watch anything besides Trinity Broadcasting Network - which was called TBN - or the Fox News channel.
‐‐ Katy Perry
I was raised in a time where children were still seen and not heard basically, so I think a lot of us in my generation went the other way and just tried to be as much more liberal and open and we're still paying for it.
‐‐ Blythe Danner
I was raised in a very activist household so that I grew up surrounded by people who were activists.
‐‐ Pearl Cleage
I was raised in a very blue-collar family.
‐‐ Jamie Moyer
I was raised in a very happy nest by very happy people, and I like to think that those are enough ingredients to make me succeed at Dior.
‐‐ Raf Simons
I was raised in a very humble environment, and I was always taught to be humble to the things that are happening in my life because they're blessings. They're blessings in every way. Whether you're able to help someone get through a tough time in their life through your music or through comedy, or whatever it is, you're just a channel.
‐‐ Justin Timberlake
I was raised in a very old fashioned Ireland where women were reared to be lovely.
‐‐ Anne Enright
I was raised in a very religious home with two parents who were deeply involved in the black church. When I was young, I went to a small black AME church in New Jersey.
‐‐ Cory Booker
I was raised in a very sheltered, narrow environment.
‐‐ Faye Wattleton
