I am not here, of course, as one pretending to any expertness on questions of youth and children - except in the sense that, within their own families, all grandfathers are experts on these matters.

My father really was not the dominant person who raised the family, it was my mother who raised the family.

The desire to provide security for oneself and one's family is natural and wholesome, but it is adequately served by a reasonable inheritance.

I had been in a motorcycle accident and I'd been hurt, but I recovered. Truth was that I wanted to get out of the rat race. Having children changed my life and segregated me from just about everybody and everything that was going on. Outside of my family, nothing held any real interest for me and I was seeing everything through different glasses.

Personal differences, musical differences, business differences, but most of all because I have a better time with my family.

My family has never been there for me. They expect things because we're blood.
