Early Life
Scott, the youngest of seven children, was born in Cottage Grove, Minnesota, the son of Patricia Anne (née Simons), a homemaker, and William Frank Scott, a factory worker. His eldest brother, Daniel, while at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, helped found The Onion, and was among the earliest writers for it. He was inspired to become an actor while working at the local movie theater and seeing all the movies he could watch free.

Famous quotes containing the words early and/or life:
“Although good early childhood programs can benefit all children, they are not a quick fix for all of society’s ills—from crime in the streets to adolescent pregnancy, from school failure to unemployment. We must emphasize that good quality early childhood programs can help change the social and educational outcomes for many children, but they are not a panacea; they cannot ameliorate the effects of all harmful social and psychological environments.”
—Barbara Bowman (20th century)
“Yet come to me in dreams that I may live
My very life again though cold in death:
Come back to me in dreams, that I may give
Pulse for pulse, breath for breath:
Speak low, lean low,
As long ago, my love, how long ago.”
—Christina Georgina Rossetti (1830–1894)
