I come from a very non-accepting family, but I'm very accepting.

I reproach so many things about my family, but on the other hand, I kept asking them to be my family.

Be yourself. And if you're not accepted by your family, there will be people who will accept you.

Your family is unavoidable. You cannot escape them or trade them in for another family. You also can't change them... but you can change your response to them.

My family didn't like me going on the stage, and they didn't much like my being a writer, either.

I love my family and I miss them very much but I'm a new person now. I know a lot of people will not agree with what I've done, but it was right for me.

I don't like to be away from my family for long periods.

People are pretty forgiving when it comes to other people's families. The only family that ever horrifies you is your own.

I love my family, even as I critique their dysfunctionalities.

You don't choose your family. They are God's gift to you, as you are to them.
