"My mom’s a Catholic, and my dad’s a Jew, and they didn’t want anything to do with anything." ― Isabelle Huppert Topic(s): Dad More From Isabelle Huppert "Before I do a play I say that I hope it’s going to be for as short a time as possible but, once you do it, it is a paradoxical pleasure. One evening out of two there are five minutes of a miracle and for those five minutes you want to do it again and again. It’s like a drug." More In Dad "I mean, my dad’s a television producer, and I knew I could get a job as an assistant or a reader with one of his friends, but it wasn’t exactly what I wanted to do."― J. J. Abrams "I want my kids to see me as Dad, for God’s sake, not a television personality."― Gordon Ramsay "My dad was in the army. World War II. He got his college education from the army. After World War II he became an insurance salesman. Really, I didn’t know my dad very well. He and my mother split up after the war. I was raised by my maternal grandmother and grandfather, and by my mother."― Al Pacino
