I was brought up as a Catholic. I've got A-level guilt.
I was brought up a Catholic, for that you get an A level in guilt.
I was brought up a Catholic, so I take no pleasure in guilt.
I grew up Catholic and still feel a lot of Catholic guilt. But my wife is not religious so we're not raising our daughters religiously.
I was born and bred a Catholic. I was brought up a very strong Catholic - I practiced in a seminary for four years, from eleven to fourteen, and trained to be a Catholic priest. So I was very steeped in all that.
I was brought up very Catholic, and the character of Tommy Gnosis got his name from there.
I've always been interested in Catholic iconography. My dad's from Naples and I was brought up in a Roman Catholic school.
I was brought up Catholic and know the stench of the Catholic Church. I moved away from religion early, but the impression remains.
Ultimately it is the yearning to believe that anyone can be brought up to college level that has brought colleges down to everyone's level.
I came up from growing up with a lot of Catholic guilt, a lot of punk rock, hipster guilt in the later years where I think people have thrown a lot of things on me. Where I always felt like I'm not supposed to tell the horn section what to play or I don't want to come off egotistical.
I think once a Catholic, always a Catholic. You never escape. I still have Catholic guilt. It is in its basis a really powerful religion and a really strong set of beliefs. They permeate my work in many ways.
I grew up Catholic. My mother is from El Salvador, so my family on her side is Roman Catholic. My father is Protestant, and while he was spiritual, he wasn't much of a churchgoing person. I think it's fairly common for families to be brought up in the mother's religion.
I have a lot of mental scars from being brought up Catholic and being sent to Catholic school for 13 years!
I have never been brought up a Catholic - I mean, a Roman Catholic - we're all Catholics, aren't we? We're Protestant Catholics, whether we're from Methodist or Baptist or what.
And I'm a Catholic, from an Irish Catholic family, and we know plenty of stuff about guilt.
I went to a Catholic University and there's something about being a Catholic-American. You know, St. Patrick's Day is, I'm Irish-Catholic. There's alcoholism in my family. It's like I've got to be Catholic, right?
Being raised Catholic myself, I think people who are Catholic tend to carry a lot of guilt. It's almost a joke.
