I never want to disappoint my parents, ever. They are people that I always look up to.

You have no idea what it is like to constantly disappoint people. You see it the moment you meet them. You see in their eyes that they expected something so entirely different, and here they are meeting... you.

My family was never happy with me. I could just say that across the board.

I would never put my job before my family.

God, it sucks to disappoint your parents, even at forty-two years old.

I didn't feel I belonged in so perfect a family.

When people disappoint you, it's just as much your responsibility to be aware of it and what you don't want.

I never wanted to rely on my family for money.

If I disappoint someone, it's their loss for putting that expectation on me when they don't know me. I can't control what they want.

It's no big deal if I disappoint strangers.
