It never entered my father's mind nor my mind ever to do a job othe than at one's best ability.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My father raised me to think independently and follow my own path in life.
I will never reach the success that my dad has felt.
My father's peripatetic career also gave me critical perspective when it came to my own career choices.
Until late in life, I was never quite good enough for my father, and I suppose that is part of what drives me even now, well after his death in 1992.
My mind's never gone very far away from what I wanted to accomplish.
Our father always made us work. I think that's the greatest thing a parent could ever do.
When you grow up around it, I just watched my father work really hard. He wasn't around as much as I would have liked. And when I grew up, I understood why.
I always knew I wanted to make my own way; I never wanted to be dependent on my father.
My father seemed always to know not only what I was doing, but what I was being.
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.
