My parents are always supportive of anything their kids do. They point out the pros and cons, but they let you make your own decisions, and when it's bad they stick by you.
‐‐ Eleanor Mondale
My parents are amazing, but when I was like, 'Well, I'm going to be an actress,' and they're all doctors, that wasn't the best and easiest thing to do. I'm sure that I probably went through a year period when I wasn't telling them exactly what I was doing. But that's going to evolve.
‐‐ Reshma Shetty
My parents are apolitical - no bumper stickers, no yard signs. They don't talk about politics.

My parents are artists and they decided they would prefer to paint in the Mediterranean rather than in Scotland.
‐‐ David Russell
My parents are artists; in their world, in the world of modern artists, you are supposed to just go into your studio and tune everything out, and your entire relationship with your work is supposed to be a super private one. That was the way to do it and you weren't deeply truly artistic if that wasn't the way you were engaging the press.
‐‐ Lena Dunham
My parents are big Shakespeare fans.
‐‐ Ellie Kendrick
My parents are both Belgian-born, and so am I, actually.

My parents are both college professors, and it made me want to question authority, standards and traditions.

My parents are both English. My dad is a plastic surgeon - his name's Norman Waterhouse, but we call him Normy. And my mom's a nurse, which is how they met - in a hospital, over decaying bone.
‐‐ Suki Waterhouse
My parents are both huge science-fiction and fantasy fans - I was fed it.
‐‐ Carrie Vaughn
My parents are both musicians and made sure we all played music. My brothers and sisters all play instruments, so we'll get together whenever we can and play. We play a lot of classical music - you know, the good stuff.
‐‐ Olivia Culpo
My parents are both pastors. In the '80s and '90s in the mainstream Christian world, it was not really common for a woman - especially a married woman and a mother - to be a pastor.
‐‐ Mallory Ortberg
My parents are both really, really funny, and my little sister is a really good painter, and my other sister is a really good writer.

‐‐ Casey Wilson
My parents are both teachers, so we had the summers off.
‐‐ Vanessa Williams
My parents are both very funny but they're also relatively soft-spoken, normal human beings while I'm just a lunatic. I don't know where this loud, ballsy, hammy ridiculousness came from. I'm just glad I followed my goals and my parents did too. It's not like we even had a plan when I dragged my mom to Los Angeles.

My parents are British but they emigrated to America, where I was born.

My parents are desperate, they keep saying: 'Please stop doing these angsty roles; make it easier for us.' So, yeah, I'd love to do some comedy.
‐‐ Ruth Wilson
My parents are divorced, and seeing that was really painful for me. Really painful for me. But that's also a big part of why I'm intrigued by the dynamics between people - because I was close to something that fell apart.
‐‐ Banks
My parents are divorced, and that was the last thing I wanted for myself. I waited until I was 36 to propose, and I'm really proud of that.
‐‐ Josh Duhamel
My parents are Dominican. I would always go to the Dominican Republic, and I fell in love with Bachata, which comes from the Dominican Republic.
‐‐ Prince Royce
My parents are European immigrants. And I think as Europeans there are so many languages in close proximity that it's part of the culture to try to learn at least one other language. So my parents really encourage it in the house. Chinese would be really great to learn - like Mandarin or Cantonese. Portuguese would be incredible.
‐‐ Stana Katic
My parents are extremely proud of me.
‐‐ Esha Gupta
My parents are famously not part of the gestalt of the fashion industry.

‐‐ Ato Essandoh
My parents are from Manchester but I was brought up in London, Camden Town.
‐‐ Sadie Frost
My parents are from north London, and so it's not like I'm some Yank who wants to make a profit out of football. I don't care about making money. I just want to see Spurs succeed and, if I can help, that's great.

My parents are Italian and British. They live in Berkeley now - we all moved there four years ago.
‐‐ Claire Forlani
My parents are kind and accepting. Because so many of my friends were gay, it was just an accepted thing in my house. I was very lucky.
‐‐ Melissa McCarthy
My parents are left-wing, and I would describe myself as that. But also, you know what? I wouldn't describe myself as that. Because I don't have to. Because I'm not a political party. Most people are a little bit of each, and we change our mind on various issues.
‐‐ Daniel Radcliffe
My parents are like religious atheists.
‐‐ Alex Clare
My parents are more likely to know who Franz Liszt is than Snooki.

My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.
‐‐ Kobe Bryant
My parents are my major supporters. I look up to Denzel Washington, Jack Nicholson and Jim Carrey. They have all opened my mind and helped me with my craft.
