- "Quite honestly I never had a desire to be an actor. I tell people, I did not choose acting; acting chose me. I never grew up wanting to be an actor. I wanted to play football. In about 9th grade an English teacher told me I had a talent to act. He said I should audition for a performing arts high school so I did on a whim. I got accepted."― Ving Rhames
- "I think there are so many ways to become interested in music. I believe signs of sustained interest gives a sense of the right time.

I do believe that a really nurturing first teacher that makes the child love something is crucial."― Yo-Yo Ma
- "It was my family that wanted me to be a teacher. That was safe, you see. To be a painter was terrible."― Josef Albers
