My mother used to tell this corny story about how the doctor smacked me on the behind when I was born and I thought it was applause, and I have been looking for it ever since.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My mom says I was born screaming.
My mother giving birth to me was just like Lady Sybil giving birth, except that there wasn't such a tragic ending.
When my son was born, and after a day of lying-in I was told that I could leave the hospital and take him home, I burst into tears. It wasn't the emotion of the moment: it was shock and horror.
You are never too old for applause. What's satisfying is that I'm being appreciated for what I was trained for.
My mom was onstage when she was pregnant with me.
The first time I acted was in high school in Florida, and when I heard that applause I felt so alive and felt that electricity go up my spine.
I was told by my mother at the age of five that I was going to be a doctor, and that was the end of the conversation. I was presented with a toy stethoscope and told to learn how to use it.
Sometimes I wish that applause would come just a bit later, when it is so beautifully hushed that I feel like holding my breath in the silence of the end.
My mother told me I was dancing before I was born. She could feel my toes tapping wildly inside her for months.
When I was born, the doctor looked at my mother and said, 'Congratulations, you have an actor!'
