"Being a father, being a friend, those are the things that make me feel successful." ― William Hurt Topic(s): Dad More From William Hurt "Heroes to me are guys that sit in libraries. They absorb knowledge and then the risks they take are calculated on the basis of the courage it took to become replete with knowledge." "Being famous is not something that would make me feel successful – unless one was striving for mediocrity." "But I am not going to live for ever. And the more I know it, the more amazed I am by being here at all." More In Dad "I spent a lot of time on farms when I was young. My uncle and my dad owned a big farm."― Emeril Lagasse "My dad dragged me to a Bruce Springsteen concert as a kid. It was my first concert, but I fell asleep in the middle. My second concert was Weezer on the ‘Pinkerton’ tour, and ‘Pinkerton’ is the reason why I’m doing this."― Nate Ruess "Money stress is what used to remind me of my Dad most."― Ted Rall
