Green Eggs and Ham was the story of my life. I wouldn't eat a thing when I was a kid, but Dr. Seuss inspired me to try cauliflower!
Jim Carrey

I was a kid, and I wasn't even sure if I wanted to play the drums, you know? All I wanted to do was skateboard, but I was still learning and taking it in, so it was good.
Travis Barker

I don't think about that. I wasn't a kid growing up saying one day I'll get an Oscar and make a speech. That wasn't on my mind. So what I do is the best work I can do.
Adam Sandler

When I was 14, I thought I was the coolest kid in school because I told everyone the jokes in FHM.
Megan Fox

If you put out 150 percent, then you can always expect 100 percent back. That's what I was always told as a kid, and It's worked for me so far!
Justin Timberlake

I wasn't allowed to go to movies when I was kid; my father was a minister. 101 Dalmatians and King of Kings, that was the extent of it.
Denzel Washington

Bambi, to a kid, was scary.
Billy Crystal

When I was a kid, we never heard of smog, ozone depletion, acid rain, green house gasses.
Dennis Weaver

Back then, I didn't have a big organization around me. I was just a kid with a guitar, traveling around. My responsibility basically was to the art, and I had extra time on my hands. There is no extra time now. There isn't enough time.
Joni Mitchell

I started playing ball when I was a kid. My dad was a pro ball player and he passed on his knowledge to me.
Kurt Russell

I played classical as a kid.
John Legend

I was a pretty insecure kid, didn't have a lot of friends, and was picked on a lot, and music gave me confidence.

My mom took me to see Carnal Knowledge and The Wild Bunch and all these kind of movies when I was a kid.
Quentin Tarantino

Because of the changes in the Padres team I played with last year, I felt like a veteran recently when I worked out with Jason Kendall and he told me he's liked listening to my records since he was a kid!
Garth Brooks

As a kid, before I could play music, I remember baseball being the one thing that could always make me happy.
Garth Brooks

It's funny how a chubby kid can just be having fun, and people call it entertainment!
Garth Brooks

Even when I was a little kid, I always said I would be in the movies one day, and damned if I didn't make it.
Richard Pryor

Fantasy for me as a kid was real, and I had a fantasy about what life was, whether it was sort of wicked and dire, or wholly normal, or whatever. Anything really close to home is not, it seems to me, what a good book should be about.
Diana Wynne Jones

I never met anybody who said when they were a kid, I wanna grow up and be a critic.
Richard Pryor

But you know, my dad called me the laziest white kid he ever met. When I screamed back at him that he was putting down a race of people to call me lazy, his answer was that's not what he was doing, and that I was also the dumbest white kid he ever met.
Norman Lear
