A Quote by Pamela Druckerman

Sometimes I just tell my kids, 'Outside of France, I'm considered completely normal.' This worked until we traveled to London.

I was very fortunate to grow up with parents who love to travel, so I traveled from a young age. My dad's a heart surgeon and goes to conferences all over the world. By the time I was seven, I traveled outside the country for the first time. We went to Paris. The next year, we went to London, and then Brussels.

Candice Accola

Sometimes it is a good thing to hear what kids have to tell you. Kids just tell the truth.

Samir Nasri

I was in a play just outside of London and started auditioning for 'Sex Education,' but I just completely had the mindset that it's a Netflix show, they're not gonna hire me anyway.

Ncuti Gatwa

When you work with kids, people tell you to be very delicate, but that's the last thing you should do with kids. They feel patronized if you're like that. They just want you to be normal.

Alfonso Cuaron

My parents loved me, and I think they realized that I was probably not going to have a normal 9-to-5 job. For the longest time, my dad thought that I was just going to be home until I was, like, 35, which, weirdly, is completely normal in Asian families.

Jason Wu

I suppose my dream was always about existing outside of London. Obviously the film world 10 years ago, when I first kicked off, was a very different landscape. Meeting anyone for a job on the crew, and on the cast, always meant a trip to London for me. But it's changed quite dramatically. You can't completely exist outside of what's down there, but things have changed massively.

Shane Meadows

I was born in London and lived there until I was five. We traveled a lot. But really San Diego is my hometown. It's where I went to high school.

Emily Ratajkowski

I've worked with 'Dream Girls' here in Los Angeles and have done 'La Cage Aux Folles' in Vegas, traveled to London in 1999 and South America in 2001.

Chad Michaels

The kids know what I'm doing when I exercise, and that's powerful. So don't just tell your kids to go play outside. Take a moment off your computer, put on your tennis shoes, hop outside and help them start their game and run off some energy.

Summer Sanders

We're poor black kids from Akron, Ohio. When you tell stories about people like us, sometimes it's going to be considered a social-impact story.

Maverick Carter

Sometimes I'm considered, I guess, a subtle actor. Maybe I'm less of a showman and more just trying to tell the story. I don't know what the perception is. I just want to tell the story so the story as a whole works as opposed to just making sure that I work.

Kelli O'Hara

Without parental guidance telling you there's another way to live it can be tough but my kids have an advantage over my life. I can tell them I know what it's like and that they don't ever want to go to the places I've been, whereas when I grew up, it was so accepted and normal that if you didn't do it, you were considered weird.

Christian Hosoi

What I saw when I went to France was that really good quality education and childcare is seen there as a completely normal part of everyday life.

Liz Truss

I was always fascinated by people who are considered completely normal, because I find them the weirdest of all

Johnny Depp

If you want your children to relate to the culture you live in, if you want to train them outside of the general system, you have to tell your children that ordinary children tend to say things like 'I can run faster than you; I can draw better than you; I know things you don't know'. You have to tell them what normal children are like. Normal children are messed up and you have to tell them about that. But if you instruct your child in high correlation with the physical world, they won't be able to relate with normal children. Normal means mixed up as I use the word.

Jacque Fresco

I think it's really hard for teenage girls in London to just gently... have a life. Everything has to be organised for kids in London - you can't just walk three roads to see a friend.
