All the songs I write are about human dynamics whether it's with girlfriends boyfriends or family.

We need a better way to talk about eating animals a way that doesn't ignore or even just shruggingly accept things like habits cravings family and history but rather incorporates them into the conversation. The more they are allowed in the more able we will be to follow our best instincts.

The purpose of the Seder to my mind is to inspire conversations with your family about the human drama and hopefully transmit values to the next generation. I've always felt like this could be better.

My father never talked about the sacrifices that the family made for me.

When there is time to think about cricket I think but when there is time to be with family I try to do justice to that aspect of my life as well.

I think it's been a little difficult at times for the audience because they've told me they see me as a family member. So to see your little sister sing about sex... I think they are pretty used to it now.

Family involvement is a valuable thing and playing together actively can be the '90s version of it. Instead of just watching you can do it together... something we don't spend enough time on. We can motivate and excite each other about fitness.

The traditional spokespersons for the Evangelicals such as Chuck Colson and James Dobson have become alarmed about this drift away from the 'Family Values' issues that they believe should be the overwhelming concerns of Evangelicals. They have expressed their displeasure in letters of protest circulated through the religious media.

My own mother always taught me that fairness was a family value - I think equal pay is about fairness for everyone.

I'm less worried about accomplishment - as younger people always can't help but be - and more concerned with spending my time well spending time with my family and reading learning things.

I'm getting older now so I should think about a family but certainly not tomorrow.

There's something about being with a group of people who become like family that must be needed in society.

Growing up in an Italian family you use a harsh tone and 10 minutes later everybody forgets about it.

You go to a restaurant in the States and kids have these game boards at the table. You don't see that in Italy or Spain. It's not because they can't afford to buy them it's because that's not what eating together as a family is about.

For those who are able to work work has to be seen as the best route out of poverty. For work is not just about more money - it is transformative. It's about taking responsibility for yourself and your family.

Music was your real passion this thing you held dear even above family. It was this relationship that never betrayed you. Once it became your job - this thing that was highly visible this thing that became about commerce - that's when you were holding onto music like it was a palm tree in a hurricane.

In every song I write whether it's a love song or a political song or a song about family the one thing that I find is feeling lost and trying to find your way.

It seems to me that unless you or someone very close to you has had a bad head injury you really can't fathom it. You have no concept of what it is all about. It was so difficult for my whole family not just me.

I'm worried about that man or woman sitting around - the coffee table tonight or in their kitchen talking about how are we going to get to work. How are we going to have the dignity to take care of our family.

There's an honesty in our family - my kids and I are able to talk about things without me putting the fear of God into them.

They say Yogi Berra is funny. Well he has a lovely wife and family a beautiful home money in the bank and he plays golf with millionaires. What's funny about that?

My mother at least twice cancelled our family's subscription to the newspaper I was working on because she was so mad about its treatment of my father.

I play with my grandchildren. I tend to my garden which I love. Of course I love to read and family is really what it's all about.

My wife my family my friends - they've all taught me things about love and what that emotion really means. In a nutshell loving someone is about giving not receiving.
