God bless Dad, he came to every one of my shows. I was bad, and I had horrible stage fright. My dad was so relieved - he'd say, 'You were terrible; this kid is not going to be an actor.' Finally, I did a play and he said, 'Son - you were really good.' Kirk Douglas actorbadbless share on social
I've always had a burning desire to help people and make a difference in the world. I didn't know how I could do that in modelling when it can be such a fake world.

I've always been into dressing nicely. My dad's really into fashion, also. We'll always go out and buy stuff. He has his own style and I have my own style, but it's a shared thing. Same thing with my grandfather; he was really into his style, so it's just sort of been passed down, I think. Patrick Schwarzenegger buydaddress share on social
My father was a physicist and also an activist. My first public protest was with my dad at Stanford. I came by all that honestly. Joan Baez activistdadfather Change image and share on social
