- Winona Ryder on Dad
- My dad took me to my first movie.

- Gary Numan on Dad
- My dad was a bartender. My mom was a cashier, a maid and a stock clerk at K-Mart. They never made it big. They were never rich. And yet they were successful. Because just a few decades removed from hopelessness, they made possible for us all the things that had been impossible for them.
