Before we got married, I had tremendous ambition. Once we got married and I started having children, then I just thought that that was my real life. Steve was definitely more ambitious than I.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Steve produced Girls Grow Up Faster Than Boys and one more. Then he and I wrote a few songs together and became good friends. He was a talented producer.
But I think Steve's main contribution besides just the pure leadership is his passion for excellence. He's a perfectionist. Good enough isn't good enough. And also his creative spirit. You know he really, really wants to do something great.
I had a family, I had children, I got married. My ambition changed.
I have a strong emotional respect for Steve.
My ambition when I was four years old was to be married.
I wasn't very ambitious. I really wanted to get married.
Like my father, like most actors, I was a pretty ambitious guy.
Part of Steve's job was to drum into us how important what we were doing actually would be to the world.
Of all the stars whom I worked with, I think Steve knew better what worked for him on the screen than any other. He had such a sense of what he could register, and that helped a lot in terms of shaping the character and the script.
It was the only ambition I ever had - not to be a dancer or Hollywood movie star, but to be a housewife in a good marriage.
