I'm sure my father had more to do with my career than I would like to give him credit for. I would love to think it was all me!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My father was so much more than an accomplished businessman.
My dad was an entrepreneurial businessman, and maybe I got some of his ability.
I wasn't really aware that my father was working for quite a while. I thought it was my mother who had all the money!
My father was a huge influence on me.
My father worked real hard. I admired him. My father taught me you needed to work with your brain and not your back. I've made that a passion.
My father would have been spectacularly ill-suited to working for an institution of any kind, and I suspect that, to a lesser degree, that's true of me, too.
My father paid for my education; then he made it clear that I was on my own.
I look back on the influence my dad had on my life and career, and I just try to take the best parts of what he had.
My father made sure that I had lots of levels of education - from ballroom-dancing to painting, commando training, theatre and magic.
Oh, my father's had a huge, immense impact on my career. I grew up on movie sets that he was working on, and it just become a part or was a part, was the only part of my life because I spent my whole childhood traveling and being on film sets.
