Public service is a part of who I am, having grown up in a family of politicians.
Having grown up on a family farm, I am all too familiar with the effects a drought can have on a crop.
The truth is, through all these years of public service, the 'service' part has always come easier to me than the 'public' part.
I grew up in a family that was committed to service, to reaching out and helping others. That's what inspired me to work in public service.
I've been so blessed to be part of a family that has dedicated its life to public service.
I think, having grown up with the Internet, things like trolls and the world of having an online life as well as a physical one, it's something I've grown up with.
I'm most interested in public service. I think that's something that I got from being part of my family, which is such an honor.
I am sure that, had I grown up with both parents, had I grown up in a safe environment, had I grown up with a feeling of safety rather than danger, I would not be the way I am.
I am occasionally enraptured by Western landscape. But I don't identify that state of mind as having to do with my own origins, having grown up in the West, although I certainly crisscrossed Nevada countless times growing up, and then as a young adult, in cars and on motorcycles.
O good old man, how well in thee appears The constant service of the antique world, When service sweat for duty, not for meed! Thou art not for the fashion of these times, Where none will sweat but for promotion, And having that do choke their service up Even with the having. . . .
I liken the Queen thing to being in a worship service. Everyone comes having grown up with this music. It's in their blood, in their souls. Every night, it's always a huge standing ovation.
I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me. That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea. My soul knows that I am part of the human race, my soul is an organic part of the great human race, as my spirit is part of my nation. In my own very self, I am part of my family.
I grew up to believe in public service. It is in the core of who I am.
A garden is a public service and having one a public duty. It is a man's contribution to the community.
I've grown up with a lot of my family in the fashion industry, so I've wanted to be part of it for as long as I can remember.
A willingness by politicians to say what they think the public want to hear, and a willingness by large parts of the public to believe what they are told by populist politicians, has led to a deterioration in our public discourse.
I was raised on the values of speaking up and making a positive difference in a very political family that believed in the importance of public service.
