Taissa Farmiga I have a rebellious teenage thing. If my mom says I can’t do it, I’m gonna do it. But I’m pretty good. That’s why it was fun to play Sam in ‘The Bling Ring.’ I got to be someone crazy and wild to the extreme, then go home and relax and get rid of the burden. – Taissa Farmiga
T J Oshie We were traveling in traffic for me to get to practices, so at times it would take two hours to get to the rink. My mom would drop me off to my dad’s side of the family and they would drive me to practice. I’d get dropped back off, we’d meet my mom and then she’d drive me back home. – T J Oshie
T J Oshie My first name is Timothy and my mom, when I was really young, watched the movie ‘The Champ’ and the little boy in the movie’s name is T.J. She liked it and figured it would work out. – T J Oshie

T Bone Burnett I naturally wanted to be saved, so when I came home I told my mom I wanted to be confirmed. That’s the way I related to it, being raised an Episcopalian. I went to Dallas and got confirmed. – T Bone Burnett
Syd My mom wasn’t expecting me to end up how I ended up. When she wanted to have kids, she wanted to have two girls, and then she got my brother and me. Which is a disappointment to anybody. You can’t help it. – Syd
Syd I grew up in a house that was constantly under construction. It’s been under construction my whole life. My mom loves interior decor, and my dad loves construction – he loves demolition and building new walls. – Syd
Swara Bhaskar When I grew up, I realised what an amazing thing my parents did. It was such a big deal for my mom, a middle class woman, to decide to leave her children and husband to go and do her Ph.D. for three years. And my dad, who is even more middle class, a traditional South Indian, to let his wife do that. – Swara Bhaskar
Suzy Amis What I really wanted to do, actually, was stay home and be a mom and have some more kids. – Suzy Amis
