In her whole life Mom never earned more than five or six dollars a week. Being without a husband, it was hard for her to find any place at all for us to live.
I've been playing sexually aware women most of my life. At this point I expected to be playing moms and wives. It's exciting to play a femme fatale.
I never knew my father. He was never married to my mother; he was never a part of my life. It was just my mom, my brother and me.
I've been performing my whole life. My mom signed me up for a theater program when I was five - I was the evil queen in 'Once Upon a Mattress.'
I lived with my mom in a really small apartment. My bedroom was like in the living room. That's why I still love to sleep on couches now.
My mom had me when she was 16, and I was an only child, which is probably why I received a lot of love and didn't miss that my father wasn't around.
'Peter Pan' is my favorite. I love the idea that all the Lost Boys were orphans, and that they wanted Wendy to be their mom.
I live for 3 reasons; To build a Home for my mom, to buy a chair for grandfather and to turn to dust.
I used to tell moms that for the sake of their well-being they had to put themselves first. But I know now that's not always possible.
For the first few years of my life my mom used to cut my hair so there were a lot of bowl-cut hair styles.
Sometimes you think you aren't a good mama; you always feel a bit guilty when you're a mom. You want to be everywhere.
I totally support women working on their relationships, their careers, or whatever they need to do to be healthy moms, but it's also important to realize you may not have as much time as you think.
Mark: We'll probably head over there right after we bury your mom.
Audrey Griswold: Mom, where can I go to the bathroom? Ellen Griswold: Find a bush Audrey!
Lewis: I don't have a mom, I have two dads. In your face.
My mom says that when I was a little kid, I always used to say I wanted to be an actor, but I don't remember that.
You'll never see me at the launch of the new PlayStation or some club. For me, the fun stuff is being able to get my mom tickets to 'Dancing With the Stars' - she loves Mario Lopez.
My mom's a psychologist, and I think that has influenced me on a personal level. Plus, I'm just generally interested in visualization and humanity, social activity and technology, and what happens in aggregate.
Now that I'm a mom, I'm way more laid back. If you come into my house, don't look for a coaster. Forget it. There is not a piece of furniture in my house now that is too precious.
I remember my mom saying that after you have a baby you get really thin. So you gain all that weight and then you just lose it and keep losing it.
My mother and my grandmother are pioneers of Mexican cuisine in this country, so I grew up in the kitchen. My mom, Zarela Martinez, was by far my biggest influence and inspiration - and toughest critic.
