Famous quotes containing the words redgrave and/or family:
“My father’s ashes are not yet interred. ... strangely, I find the fact that he isn’t properly laid to rest helps me when I’m doing this play.”
—Lynn Redgrave (b. 1943)
“I acknowledge that the balance I have achieved between work and family roles comes at a cost, and every day I must weigh whether I live with that cost happily or guiltily, or whether some other lifestyle entails trade-offs I might accept more readily. It is always my choice: to change what I cannot tolerate, or tolerate what I cannot—or will not—change.”
—Melinda M. Marshall (20th century)
