My father was very bright. My mother had enormous drive. Put that together, and that's my gene pool.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I remember seeing my father only twice as a child for brief visits. As I grew up, I invented a father who was larger than life - stronger, smarter, more handsome, and even holier than other men.
My dad was very intelligent, had a very strong personality. I was amazed with my father.
My father was a huge influence on me.
My father was a successful real estate developer, and he was a very tough man but a good man. My father would always praise me. He always thought I was the smartest person.
To be fair to my dad, he is one of the brightest men I've ever met.
My parents were just as smart as I am, just as hard working if not harder; I think my father and grandfather were probably better men, yet I've been able to accomplish things professionally that they were not able to.
My father... had sharper eyes than the rest of our people.
My father was a beautiful man.
I was not particularly bright, I wasn't very athletic, I was a little too tall, odd, funny looking, I was just really weird as a kid.
I wasn't necessarily the brightest in my family. I think my older sister was probably more clever, but I worked very hard.
