My family came in 1635 from England and settled in Williamsburg. Shortly after, they split up; half went to New England and half stayed in Virginia. I'm a Virginian Ballard.

My family came over from Spain about nine generations ago. I was born in San Diego, but by the time I was four days old, I was on a flight back to Spain because that's where my family was living at the time.
‐‐ Bitsie Tulloch
My family came to Newark in the '20s. We've been there a long, long time. My father's name was LeRoi, the French-ified aspect of it, because his first name was Coyette, you see. They come from South Carolina.
‐‐ Amiri Baraka
My family can always tell when I'm well into a novel because the meals get very crummy.
‐‐ Anne Tyler
My family celebrates both the navratras that come twice in a year. We also refrain from eating meat. I just enjoy that people come home, savour the variety of snacks and participate in our puja during this time.
‐‐ Ronit Roy
My family claims I think I'm always right, although I'm always willing to be proven wrong. I hold my opinions dearly, but you can always try to convince me differently, and if you do, I will hold that opinion dearly. I am decidedly stubborn and have been described as not having a type-A personality, but a quadruple-A personality.
‐‐ Eric Walters
My family comes first, and you have to be in charge to be able to protect that. You have to be the one who says no or you don't have a life, which is what I found out the first time.
‐‐ Sarah Michelle Gellar
My family comes first. Maybe that's what makes me different from other guys.
‐‐ Bobby Darin
My family comes from New Zealand, but I'm a London girl. I was born and raised in London, but I've got the blood of a New Zealander, so I always kind of felt like I didn't belong - in a good way.
‐‐ Natasha Bedingfield
My family could only afford to get me the box of eight Crayola crayons, but I craved the one with all 24 colours. I wanted magenta and turquoise and silver and gold.
‐‐ Joni Mitchell
My family couldn't be more supportive. They're worried and they're always in my business, and my mother does send me grad-school applications every now and again.
‐‐ Ana Ortiz
My family deals with those risks. The best I can do is talk to them about some of those risks. I'm not incredibly specific with them, especially with my kids.
‐‐ Mark Kelly
My family didn't film anything. But then you look deeper and realize, maybe there are photographs, there are things. It's also context: You give something a context, and suddenly it becomes really deep or meaningful footage.
‐‐ Asif Kapadia
My family didn't have a lot of money, and I'm grateful for that. Money is the longest route to happiness.
‐‐ Evangeline Lilly
My family didn't have any money growing up. I'm just a girl from the ghetto; from Indio, California.
‐‐ Vanessa Marcil
My family didn't have lots of money or anything.
‐‐ Charlotte Dujardin
My family didn't have money, and I think it made me fearless. I'm willing to try everything and not be afraid because what's the worst that can be happen? It might not work out, but I can't be worse off than when I was a kid.
‐‐ Cristela Alonzo
My family didn't have time for me, so I decided to join the Suvorov military academy, which is in St. Petersburg. I spent two years there and studied general military science. At that point, once I graduated, I joined the Chernigov higher education pilot academy.
‐‐ Roman Romanenko
My family didn't have very much money, so ballet wasn't even on my radar; I just found it randomly when I was 13 at a Boys & Girls Club. We were practicing in a basketball court in gym clothes with some old socks on. Even though it terrified me at first, I found that I really liked it.
‐‐ Misty Copeland
My family didn't like me going on the stage, and they didn't much like my being a writer, either.
‐‐ P. L. Travers
My family do not think I'm special - not one, one bit.
‐‐ Sophie Monk
My family doesn't understand trying to chase your dreams because they were all about survival.
‐‐ Cristela Alonzo
My family don't watch a lot of what I do. Films are a bit too arty-farty for them, certainly the ones I do!
‐‐ Samantha Morton
My family fled Iran in October 1978 as a result of the coming revolution when I was two years old. In the early days, my entire family lived together in a very crowded house, where I shared a room with my sister, cousin, and grandmother, and we would all listen to my grandmother tell stories before bedtime.
‐‐ Pardis Sabeti
My family for several generations have been members of the Unitarian Church.
‐‐ Leverett Saltonstall
My family, frankly, they weren't folks who went to church every week. My mother was one of the most spiritual people I knew but she didn't raise me in the church, so I came to my Christian faith later in life and it was because the precepts of Jesus Christ spoke to me in terms of the kind of life that I would want to lead.
‐‐ Barack Obama
My family fulfills me.
‐‐ Meredith Vieira
My family gave me values that have sustained me through situations that would challenge any person. My personal relationship with the Lord inspires me in all I do.
‐‐ Kathy Ireland
My family get so mad at me when they come over. All I'll have in is milk and eggs. I mainly keep film in my fridge - it's better for it; it stops it from going old. I'm bad at eating healthy; I usually just run across the street and get cheeseburgers.
‐‐ Gia Coppola
My family got all over me because they said Bush is only for the rich people. Then I reminded them, 'Hey, I'm rich'.
‐‐ Charles Barkley
My family had a business where they worked with gravestones, and I remember growing up and playing in cemeteries like it was a normal playground.
‐‐ Zach Roerig
My family had a habit of collecting creatures that didn't always want to be pets. The first animal I can remember was a Lab named Zoe.
‐‐ Peter Dinklage
My family had a membership to the Riverside Yacht Club where my brother, Sandy, learned to sail, and I competed in local swim races. My sister, Marcia, became a competitive springboard diver, and my brother excelled in water polo.
‐‐ Dorothy Hamill
My family had all kinds of complications in relationships. I would like to meet the person who did not. Since when is being absolutely perfect what being a human is? What do we gain from that?
‐‐ Anthony Edwards
My family had liberal positions.
‐‐ Emma Bonino
My family has always been there to support me along the way. My coach, John Nicks, is a great influence.
‐‐ Sasha Cohen
My family has always called me 'Lay Lay,' and my dad used to always call me 'Dynamite Termite' because I was really short and small and I hated to be still. I would never stop.
‐‐ Lacey Chabert
My family has always supported me a thousand percent. My sister once sold her jewelry so I could pay for gas money to get up to New York for a show. And that's amazing. But you get too much of that, you start depending on it.
‐‐ Jay Pharoah
My family has always supported me completely and kept me grounded. I never got lost in child Hollywood actor weirdness.
‐‐ Sara Paxton
My family has been amazing, and they understand how blessed I am. They've been able to keep my sense of humor.
‐‐ Karen Duffy
My family has been around campaigns for a long time. It's something you really have to be sure that you alone want to do. Because if not, if you don't want to do it, that will just blow through the surface at some point, and people can tell. And when people can tell, it's all over.
‐‐ Joseph P. Kennedy III
My family has been in politics a long time in Los Angeles. We very much believe we are elected to represent the people. I mean, I am to give voice to, you know, the over half a million people I represent in my congressional district. I mean, that's the way it works.
‐‐ Janice Hahn
My family has been rooted and intertwined with Jerusalem for generations, and I am among those who say every day, 'May You return to Your city, Jerusalem, with compassion.'
‐‐ Isaac Herzog
My family has had a lot of trouble with cancer in particular. There are a lot of great causes out there but for me to pick one I would say anything that is cancer related.
‐‐ Casey James
My family has had to become quite understanding about me not returning phone calls when I'm filming.
‐‐ Anna Kendrick
My family has had to move and change their name and have been subject to threats from right wing blogs calling for my son, for example, to be killed to get at me.
‐‐ Julian Assange
My family has loved Minnesota and that was one of the big reasons we decided to come back. For me, family decisions were a big part to coming back to the Twins.
‐‐ Jim Thome
My family has never been there for me. They expect things because we're blood.
‐‐ Eminem
My family has reduced the effect of my career on my self-esteem. When I'm with them, they make me feel special regardless of how I play.
‐‐ Phil Mickelson
